Can't use "for x minutes" in condition? (within choose action)

[hushed narwhal]

I would like to turn on an input boolean when a power plug detects that my dishwasher is above 5 watts for 1 minute and turn off when it's below 1 watt for 5 minutes. (or maybe with different values in the future)

The UI doesn't allow this but seems like I also can't save the automations like this. is there are correct way of doing this?

Message malformed: extra keys not allowed @ data['actions'][0]['choose'][0]['conditions'][0]['for']

Why not just make them turn on/off triggers?

Wouldn't I need 2 automations then?

Ah nevermind, I looked around and wasn't aware of trigger ID's

Yeah you can have multiple triggers and use an id, but you could also just check the state again

True, thanks!
