Where do I find - wait_for_trigger: in the automation UI? When I click on add building block, I do not see this option.

maybe you need advanced mode enabled?

#

I showed you my screenshot, right?

hasty moon
#

You did, and I do not see what you sent

#

Where is the advanced mode for the automation edititor?

atomic coyote
#

Thanks

I just tried it and the automation did not wait for the trigger, before it sent the notification. Do I need to change the order of the actions?

I changed the order and it now works
