I am trying to define an automation that is triggered for multiple light drivers, and I want to define the minutes that is turned off as a variable, but does not work.
#✅ Trigger variables not working in "for minutes"

(i'm using Home Assistant 2024.11 if it helps)

You can't template device trigger for field

I can't stand that it's a thing
it's good for event based things, that's it
but now that there is event entities, it's not even that greate for them either anymore

✅ Confirmed, needs quotes and trigger state . Thanks!
filter int or float doesn't seem to be required, but quoting does
✅ Trigger variables not working in "for minutes"

it only gets string'ed if it's a state at some point

well, if you pull it from the states table/machine
