Alert attributes are removed each 10 minutes

[Albert994]

I want to create an automation which sends a notify message to my smartphone when a new alert occurs. Therefore I use following trigger:

platform: state
entity_id:
  - binary_sensor.indego_xxx_alert
attribute: last_alert_date

Unfortunately the automation gets triggered each 10 minutes, because the attributes are removed shortly:

This is the first state change where the attribute are "removed"

this:
  entity_id: automation.indego2_problem
  state: 'on'
  attributes:
    id: '1711376097352'
    last_triggered: '2024-06-02T15:02:23.998593+00:00'

and directly afterwards the attributes "come back":

I tested it with version 5.6.1 and the newest beta version 5.7.0b1. The behavior is the same.

Thanks for reporting. I understand why (side effect of another fix), will try to resolve it within a couple of days.

[sander1988]

The fix is on the develop branch and I also created a new beta (5.7.0b2). Please test if it's resolved.

[Albert994]

Thanks, I will test it and give feedback.

[Albert994]

It's running since yesterday w/o issues. Thanks a lot for fixing it!
