I selected the option to activate scene, but I don't see any way to select scene I want to activate. why? I created a scene that changes two lights states and nothing else. but I don't see them here.

#

I would like to activate scene with timed trigger instead having to manually setup the lights independently in the automation-tab. but seems I can't figure this out.

Click "choose entity"

ah ok it's entity like everything else pretty much... not the most intuitive option though. but oh well.

#

is there a trigger like "every workday", "every monday 7 am" etc. possible with this? I only see hours, minutes and seconds and option for calendar for specific dates..

There is an integration called "workday" for your first request (https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/workday/). Where you would basically do Every Day -> AND IF Workday

For the every day you could just do a hours for 7am for it to run every day at 7 am and a AND IF with a schedule (https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/schedule/) that you make the entire monday and non of the other days.

Basically just combine the different triggers / ifs

I don't see why those couldn't be an option in the automation directly?

#

why make it complicated for the user?

#

that workday was just an example. Your example intergation about workday doesn't state what days it counts as workday. it only talks about holidays. What if someone is workin on the weekends. it probably doesn't work.

#

my usecase wasn't directly about workdays. having an option to select specific weekdays(monday, tuesday...) would be nice.
