Call service with label_id (howto?)

[EddyK69]

Since Home Assistant 2024.4 it is possible to use labels with devices. This also works (from within HA) with a service call like:

How can I perform this with a 'call-service'-node as there is no field for label_id?

It should be able to define label_id in the data field and work the same as it was in the target field.

@EddyK69, of course, you can do it via API node like so:

[{"id":"a84e43a7b5a871f3","type":"ha-api","z":"4299105a50935a8d","name":"","server":"c2b85303.f532c","version":1,"debugenabled":false,"protocol":"websocket","method":"get","path":"","data":"{\t  \"type\": \"execute_script\",\t  \"sequence\": [\t    {\t      \"action\": \"light.toggle\",\t      \"target\": {\t        \"label_id\": \"autopresence\"\t      },\t      \"data\": {}\t    }\t  ]\t}","dataType":"jsonata","responseType":"json","outputProperties":[{"property":"payload","propertyType":"msg","value":"","valueType":"results"}],"x":850,"y":500,"wires":[[]]},{"id":"44c1a981c0cfa532","type":"inject","z":"4299105a50935a8d","name":"","props":[],"repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","x":110,"y":480,"wires":[["a84e43a7b5a871f3"]]},{"id":"c2b85303.f532c","type":"server","name":"Home Assistant","version":5,"addon":true,"rejectUnauthorizedCerts":true,"ha_boolean":"y|yes|true|on|home|open","connectionDelay":false,"cacheJson":true,"heartbeat":false,"heartbeatInterval":"30","areaSelector":"friendlyName","deviceSelector":"friendlyName","entitySelector":"id","statusSeparator":"at: ","statusYear":"hidden","statusMonth":"short","statusDay":"numeric","statusHourCycle":"h23","statusTimeFormat":"h:m","enableGlobalContextStore":true}]
