Using {{entity}} as a place holder for entity id in tap action

[evercape]

Hi,

I am successfully using {{entity}} as place holder for the actual entity when using custom mushroom card.

However, it is not working within the tap action.

Here is my code:

- type: horizontal-stack
    cards:
      - type: custom:mushroom-template-card
        entity: binary_sensor.irrigation_unlimited_c2_z3
        primary: '{{ state_attr(entity, ''friendly_name'')}}'
        secondary: |-
          {% if is_state_attr(entity, 'status','on') %} 
            {{ state_attr(entity, 'time_remaining')}} 
          {% else %}
            {{ state_attr(entity, 'today_total')}} min today    
          {% endif %} 
        icon: |-
          {% if is_state_attr(entity, 'status','off') %}
          mdi:valve-closed
          {% elif is_state_attr(entity, 'status','on') %}
          mdi:valve-open
          {% else %}
          mdi:valve
          {% endif %}
        icon_color: |-
          {% if is_state_attr(entity, 'status','off') %}
          grey
          {% elif is_state_attr(entity, 'status','on') %}
          orange
          {% else %}
          red
          {% endif %}
        badge_icon: |-
          {% if is_state_attr(entity, 'status','on') %}
          mdi:sprinkler  
          {% endif %}
        badge_color: blue
        tap_action:
          action: call-service
          service: script.irrigation_toggle_manual_zone
          data:
            entity_id: {{entity}}
          target: {}

So, primary: '{{ state_attr(entity, ''friendly_name'')}}' is correctly being treated as primary: '{{ state_attr(binary_sensor.irrigation_unlimited_c2_z3, ''friendly_name'')}}' whereas in tapaction's entity_id: {{entity}} the entity is not being replaced by its actual id.

Any idea why?
Thanks
Martin

The template card instructions show that entity can be used as a template holder:

A template card allows you to build a custom card. You can use entity as a variable for the entity set on the card e.g. {{ states(entity) }}.
