Service Widget not working to disarm alarm

When creating a Widget to disable my alarm or a Widget for anything, they don’t seem to work at all. When I press the Widget, it spins and gives me a green check mark after a few short seconds. To me that’s an indication that it executed just fine. However, it doesn’t do anything.

I’m running the latest version of HA on Android 11 on my Pixel 3 XL, which is 2.4.1-full. I’ve also removed the app by following the steps found here https://companion.home-assistant.io/docs/troubleshooting/faqs/#starting-fresh-with-the-android-app

I also ensured that background data saver and limitation were disabled, let the documentation in that same link. Here is a screenshot example of one Widget button I’m creating to disable my alarm:

Ok, I take that back. Widgets are working. I was able to get this light scene to work:

Looks like it’s just an issue with my alarm Widget. Anything obvious I am doing wrong with the alarm widget?

Ok, so arming the alarm widgets also works but disarming seems to be the issue. I’m wondering if the disarming passcode is not getting passed to HA when I click on the widget.

Does the actual unlock code start with a zero by any chance? There’s this reported issue where it appears to drop leading zeros from the code:

So now I have to erase my entire alarm code because you now know it starts with a zero…LOL

Just kidding, but yes, it does! I guess I’ll change it. It looks like changing it to something else without a leading zero does work. Thanks for pointing that out
