Which UI did you use to generate a blueprint with an input?
~~It looks like the action statement could have been pulled from a working automation but the input: syntax is wrong. ~~ @zinc lagoon

I created this blueprint and automation originally a few weeks ago, so when I get to work, I'll recreate my steps so I'm not giving you false information. But I'm pretty sure I added the blueprint, then made an automation from the blueprint, then added two service actions in the UI. But again, I'll verify those were the steps I took.

So yeah. I imported the blueprint (link above), then I created an automation from that blueprint. In the UI that was opened when I created that (see attached), I added a "Call Service" action for the Phone notification and another "Call Service" action for the Todoist new task. I saved those and then edited each in yaml to put the {{ sensors }} variable in the message and content of each, respectively. Doing that process created the input: syntax that you see above.

Can't seem to upload a screenshot of the automation screen I see.

Ok...I see.
This is the automation that the UI generated from the blueprint, not the blueprint. Sorry about that.

If you are having a problem with a specific Blueprint, the first point of contact is in the Exchange (or Github) post that you found the Blueprint in originally.
There are people there using the equipment and the blueprint and will be able to give you more accurate information regarding your problem.

After some searching I think I found that thread for that BP, and it has 340 messages in it. Most likely something in there would help you OR just ask your new question there.
