Notify command_webview only opens to home screen

Mobile Apps Home Assistant Companion for Android
1

Hello,
I have nabucasa that I use for https access externally. I’m trying to have a notification which can command the companion app open to a specific view (or to a specific camera), and neither approach works.

My phone gets the notifications without issues, but when I tap on them, it just opens to the main view.

I’m using a test automation which I can force trigger for testing purposes.

- alias: "Camera Detection: Test"
  trigger:
  action:
    - service: notify.mobile_app_pixel_6_pro
      data_template:
        message: 'A test notification'
        data:
          message: "command_webview"
          title: "/lovelace-cameras/automations"

I’ve also tried

- alias: "Camera Detection: Test"
  trigger:
  action:
    - service: notify.mobile_app_pixel_6_pro
      data_template:
        message: 'A test notification'
        data:
          message: "command_webview"
          title: "entityId:camera.front_door_camera"

The path is correct, and the entity ID is also correct, see below:
entities

I did check the google play store, and I am on the latest version of both HASS as well as the companion app:
Phone app: 2022.6.0-full (Google Pixel 6 Pro)
Server: Home Assistant 2022.7.4

My ultimate goal here is when I get a notification for a frigate event, it opens to the clip of the event, or a live view of the camera. Currently it seems to not work at all.
Also, does this functionality work on iPhone?

Why do you havemessage listed twice? Make sure to follow the examples properly.

Looks like that was it.

The short answer for that was it was 4 am and I was tired lol.

Thanks.
