### Example YAML snippet
```yaml
action: switch.turn_off
data: {}
target:
entity_id: switch.shed_camera_detections_animal
```
### Anything in the logs that might be useful for us?
```txt
It is sending this:
'smart_detect_settings': {'object_types': [<SmartDetectObjectType.FACE: 'face'>, <SmartDetectObjectType.LICENSE_PLATE: 'licensePlate'>, <SmartDetectObjectType.PERSON: 'person'>, <SmartDetectObjectType.VEHICLE: 'vehicle'>]
...when it appears that the API does not understand this for a G4?
```
### Additional information
