State attribute is not retrieved when using a for loop

Hi,

I’m stuck on creating a for loop that retrieves multiple names from the attributes of a sensor.

If I do the following:

{% for faces in state_attr('image_processing.microsoftface_ip_webcam','faces') %}
{%- if loop.first %} {% elif loop.last %} and {% else %}, {% endif -%}
{{ states.image_processing.microsoftface_ip_webcam.attributes.faces }}
{% endfor %}

I get:

[{'name': 'Carmen', 'confidence': 58.236}, {'name': 'Michiel', 'confidence': 54.443}]
 and [{'name': 'Carmen', 'confidence': 58.236}, {'name': 'Michiel', 'confidence': 54.443}]

Which makes sense. But since I want the name I add the .name to the end:

{% for faces in state_attr('image_processing.microsoftface_ip_webcam','faces') %}
{%- if loop.first %} {% elif loop.last %} and {% else %}, {% endif -%}
{{ states.image_processing.microsoftface_ip_webcam.attributes.faces.name }}
{% endfor %}

But then no names are returned:

and 

My goal is to have both the names displayed. e.g. Carmen and Michiel

Could someone help me figure out what I’m am doing wrong?

ps I can access the seperate name values {{states.image_processing.microsoftface_ip_webcam.attributes.faces[0].name }}, but since the list doesn’t always have the same amount of values, I would like to create it dynamically.
