Automation problem

[Bouni]

I can also change these values with the Alpha app. But these changes are not show in the corresponding input_number. I have therefor this code:

if value on Luxtronik changes: set value on slider

automation:

• alias: set slider trigger: platform: state entity_id: sensor.luxtronik.ID_Einst_WK_akt action: service: input_number.set_value data: entity_id: input_number.stooklijn_verschuiving value: "{{ states(sensor.luxtronik.ID_Einst_WK_akt) }}"

But I get the error: ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.config] Invalid config for [automation]: Entity ID sensor.luxtronik.ID_Einst_WK_akt is an invalid entity id for dictionary value @ data['entity_id']. Got None. (See ....configuration.yaml, line 21).

What am I doing wrong??

Please do not hijack other issues.

Can you verify that sensor.luxtronik.ID_Einst_WK_akt is a valid entity id using the developer tools of HA?

Sorry for the post in the wrong issue.

You are fully right with your question: it should be "luxtronik.ID_Einst_WK_akt" without "sensor". The complete and correct yaml-code for this automation is: `

if value changes on the luxtronik input_number is adhusted

• alias: set slider stooklijn verschuiving trigger: platform: state entity_id: luxtronik.ID_Einst_WK_akt action: service: input_number.set_value data: entity_id: input_number.stooklijn_verschuiving value: "{{ states('luxtronik.ID_Einst_WK_akt') }}"

if input_number is changed, the new value is sent to luxtronic

• alias: set stooklijn verschuiving op luxtronik trigger:
  • platform: state entity_id: input_number.stooklijn_verschuiving action: service: luxtronik.write data: parameter: ID_Einst_WK_akt data_template: value: '{{ trigger.to_state.state }}' ` I think the issue can be closed,

Ok, happy that you found the cause of the problem!
