Unfortunately this only works in ‘classic’ homeyscript.  
Things have changed since HS uses homey-api instead of athom-api for new scripts [(source)](https://community.homey.app/t/homeyscript-looking-for-testers/109249)

`uri` and `id `are now combined as `id`:

([source of screenshot](https://athombv.github.io/com.athom.homeyscript/tutorial-migrate))

Second, I always first create the service (called ‘action’ nowadays) in the ‘Actions’ tab of HA Developer tools, to make sure it works:

Next, I check if this works with a real flow card:

So far, so good.  
However, I can’t get the script to run successfully

This one errrors:

```auto
const test = await Homey.flow.runFlowCardAction({
    id: 'homey:app:io.home-assistant.community:callServiceEntity',
    args: {
      service: 'tts.google_translate_say',
      entity: 'media_player.yamaha_kamer',
      data: {
        'message':'hallo dit is homey',
        'language':'nl'
        }
    },
});

console.log(test);

```

Error:

```auto
{
  returnTokens: null,
  usedTokens: {},
  error: { message: 'Unexpected token o in JSON at position 1' },
 }

```

The issue seems to be the data part. The [JSON should be converted to a string](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38380462/syntaxerror-unexpected-token-o-in-json-at-position-1#38380728)

So I tried `toString`, and the `JSON.stringify` Arnt used, but it’s not working yet;  
This one errors as well:

```auto
const test = await Homey.flow.runFlowCardAction({
    id: 'homey:app:io.home-assistant.community:callServiceEntity',
    args: {
      service: 'tts.google_translate_say',
      entity: 'media_player.yamaha_kamer',
      data: JSON.stringify({
        'message': 'hallo dit is homey',
        'language': 'nl'})
    },
});

console.log(test);

```

Error:

```auto
{
  returnTokens: null,
  usedTokens: {},
  error: { message: "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'split')" },
}

```

I’m no coder or expert in this, I think I’m close but no cigar apparently 🤣.  
I’m out of ideas here.

This works fine however:

```auto
const test = Homey.flow.runFlowCardAction({
  id: 'homey:manager:mobile:push_text',
    args: {
        user: {
        id: 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxxxx',
	    athomId: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
	    },
	    text: 'Test push notification from HomeyScript'
        },
     });
console.log(test);

```
