Hi,

According to https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2020/03/18/release-107/#breaking-changes

Groups - Groups are NOT being removed, but the configuration options, services, and service options related to the (previously deprecated and now removed) States UI are now removed in this release.

I used to have a group of people where was check the state if this group is On/Off and according to this automation was initiated.

/config/groups.yaml

group_people:
  name: People
  icon: mdi:human-male-female
  entities:
    - input_boolean.personA_present
    - input_boolean.personB_present
    - binary_sensor.dt_router_personA
    - binary_sensor.dt_router_personB

Could you please explain how to use it in 0.107 version? Should I check manually all of these entities in my automation?

I used to have:

{% if trigger.to_state.state == “on” and trigger.entity_id == “group.group_people” %}

Should I use this instead:

{% if trigger.to_state.state == “on” and (trigger.entity_id == “input_boolean.personA_present” or trigger.entity_id == “input_boolean.personB_present” or trigger.entity_id == “binary_sensor.dt_router_personA” or trigger.entity_id == “binary_sensor.dt_router_personB”) %}

?

Thank you for explanation.
