I would need : {{ trigger.entity_id }}

I would need : {{ trigger.entity_id }}

It already exists in version 0.117.

Here are two input_datetime entities:

Here is an automation that is triggered by either of the two entities. It reports which entity triggered the automation:

  trigger:
  - platform: time
    at:

      - input_datetime.test2
  action:
  - service: persistent_notification.create
    data:
      title: '{{ now().timestamp() | timestamp_local() }}'
      message: 'Triggered by: {{ trigger.entity_id }}'

Here are the notifications produced by the automation:
