Feeds/Sleeps/TummyTime that start before midnight and end after midnight are not saved.

If a feed starts and ends on the same day, this is not an issue. It will populate the correct times for both fields. I am assuming since this service call only takes a time format instead of datetime, it assumes the times are all on the same date, which causes these issues.

My proposed solution is to use a datetime object across all the service calls. Pumping, tummy time, sleep, and feedings.

Edit: I want to point out that I am not using the timer feature as I am storing start and end times automatically in a sensor/input_datetime object. I am unsure on how to use the timer feature (via home assistant service calls) when I would need multiple timers to be simultaneously running. (sleep, feedings, etc)

I think something may be wrong with your datetime formats, because we should be able to accept that.

This works just fine:

action: babybuddy.add_feeding
data:
  start: "2024-10-08 15:00:00"
  end: "2024-10-09 08:10:00"
  type: Breast milk
  method: Bottle
  amount: 1
