Scene manipulation

I have the following script which I use in automations to create a new scene. I can then call that scene to activate it back again.

alias: Scene Creator Script
sequence:
  - variables:
      scene_name: "{{ name_var }}_{{ room_var }}"
      scene_id: scene.{{ name_var }}_{{ room_var }}
      sxc: |
        {"scene": "{{ scene_name }}"}
  - choose:
      - conditions:
          - condition: template
            value_template: "{{ states(scene_id) == 'unknown' }}"
        sequence:
          - service: scene.create
            data:
              snapshot_entities: "{{ my_entities_var }}"
              scene_id: "{{ scene_name }}"
      - conditions:
          - condition: template
            value_template: "{{ states(scene_id) != 'unknown' }}"
        sequence:
          - service: scene.delete
            target:
              entity_id: "{{ scene_name }}"
            data: {}
          - service: scene.create
            data:
              snapshot_entities: "{{ my_entities_var }}"
              scene_id: "{{ scene_name }}"
  - stop: Captured Scene
    response_variable: sxc
fields:
  name_var:
    selector:
      text: null
    name: name var
    required: true
  room_var:
    selector:
      area: {}
    name: room var
    required: true
  my_entities_var:
    selector:
      entity:
        multiple: true
    name: my entities var
    required: true
