Service actions no longer accept a manually entered vin parameter. Instead, you must select the vehicle using the new device dropdown.

- The
vinparameter is no longer supported - Any automations, scripts, or other references using
vinmust be updated - Service actions now require selecting the target vehicle from the device dropdown in the UI
How to Update Existing Automations or Scripts
- Open the automation, script, or other configuration that uses the service action
- Locate and remove the
vinparameter from the service call - After removing
vin, the editor will switch from YAML mode back to UI mode - In UI mode, select the appropriate vehicle from the device dropdown
- Save your changes
