Flash Lights when doorbell triggered woes

[stone rapids]

I’m trying to flash some lights a specific color when the Ring doorbell is pressed. The issue is they don’t restore to their previous state all the time(off or a certain color/brightness) after flashing – they just stay on the flash color. I want the lights to flash whether they’re on or off and go back to how they were.

Attached is my YAML. Any suggestions?

alias: Doorbell - Flash Lights
description: >-
  Flashes the lights blue and restores them to their previous state 3 times when
  the doorbell rings.

Hi @stone rapids
That looks off to me.
Can you fix the formatting so we can tell better. indents and spacing are everything in YAML.

To format your text as code, enter three backticks on the first line, press Enter for a new line, paste your code, press Enter again for another new line, and lastly three more backticks.
```yaml
example: here
```
Don't forget you can edit your post rather than repeatedly posting the same thing.
