The problem is not in the panel (although it is not clear why the panel should be displayed when there is no need to enter the code), but that the template does not work when called by the service. I still have a test HAOS 2024.3.3, in which this template works both from services and from the panel (when switching from the panel, there is a code request when you do not need to enter it, but to switch it is enough to leave it empty)

I was having the same issue after updating from 2024.5.x to 2024.6.3 yesterday. Have always had no code defined in the configuration and was working until that update.

Error while executing automation automation.both_phones_charging_arm_goodnight: Arming requires a code but none was given for alarm_control_panel.home_alarm

Looking through states, shows that the code_format is listed as text, don't believe it shows that before.

Checking my yaml it listed as code_template:''. Removed that line, and added code_arm_required:false, did a restart and back to working, and removed the code section from the frontend panel. (additionally the state shows code_format as null now).

Am guessing something changed that the blank template was no longer considered 'None', thus requiring the code. Don't have the time to dig deeper, but hope that helps!

You have completely stopped using code. I'm using the code as described above. See the documentation for code_template (an empty string disables checking the code). What's the point of this parameter if it doesn't work...

Totally misread your original, but you are correct, I'm not using any codes currently (no kiosk, so no reason for that), or before.

Am guessing these may be related, since both the empty string and a template code are both failing after the same update and refactoring.
