I have a switch I'd like to toggle.
The action node works when injected by a inject node.
I have a remote that gives as output "brightness_move_down_4":

object
action: "brightness_move_down_4"

When this output is connected to the action node this node gives below error and nothing happens.
"InputError: Invalid action format: brightness_move_down_4"
What do I have to change?

Hi. Have you tried comparing debug nodes from the output of both of them? Be sure to edit the debug nodes to show complete msg object.

In the action node turn on "block input overrides"
