REST API : no attributes after setting state?

Configuration Frontend
1

Hello,

I defined a rest-command as this :

  turn_status_lights_hallway_on:
    url: http://192.168.1.6:8123/api/states/light.lights_hallway
    method: POST
    headers:
      authorization: 'Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5xxxxxxxxxxyNjkzOTc4fQ.xxxxxxx-3c8lCIvELTJjpgfcL-8'
      content-type: 'application/json'
    payload: '{"state":"on"}'

Execution of the service :

      - service: rest_command.turn_status_lights_hallway_on
        data: {}

This works fine (status changes to on) but all the attributes are gone ?

How can I avoid this ?

What are “the attributes”, what entity is this and how is this connected to your REST command?

That’s what I get when I use the standard light on/off service :

And here is the definition of the light :

  - platform: template
    lights:
      lights_hallway:
        friendly_name: "Lights hallway"
        turn_on:
          service: homeassistant.turn_on
          entity_id: switch.do_not_use_verlichting_hallway
        turn_off:
          service: homeassistant.turn_off
          entity_id: switch.do_not_use_verlichting_hallway

  - platform: command_line
    switches:
        do_not_use_verlichting_hallway:
          command_on: 'curl "http://192.168.1.3:80/postEvent.html?action=input&STM=0&MOD=5&CHA=0&EVT=3"'
          command_off: 'curl "http://192.168.1.3:80/postEvent.html?action=input&STM=0&MOD=5&CHA=1&EVT=3"'

The rest command is used within the same home assistant.
