Lock mode block scheduler and automation

[diegoflyer]

I have excluded lock mode to block automation but only user action.
The lock is used in my case to stop unwanted actions on the dashboards.
Even if the settings are:

is_lock_configured: true
lock_manager:
is_locked: true
lock_users: true
lock_automations: false
lock_code: false

I am not able to change preset (eco, comfort,...) by scheduler or automations...

it works with scheduler not with automation

Hello @KipK does the lock should block Scheduler and Automation or only the Scheduler ?

[KipK]

If lock_automations: false it shouldn't lock anything but only user actions.

But...
If an automation is triggered manually by a button for example, HA then adds the "user_id" context to the trigger.

So it's considered as a user action and will be blocked as user.
It's also intended by design to lock feature, as it is indeed a user action.

Perhaps we should then have 3 lock mode like:

• system lock ( Integration, system automations )
• user lock ( lock user actions aka manual interactions )
• ui lock ( lock ui only )

No need of evolution I think. It was more to understand the behavior.
