This is the blueprint I have generated from the automation above
blueprint:
name: Light via Motion or Manual
description: Light operates using a motion sensor or manual via a wall switch. If the light is off it is set to automatic mode. If the light turns on via the motion sensor it stays in automatic mode, whereas the mode changes to manual if the light is turned on using the light switch. To bring the light into manual mode if it is already turned on via the motion sensor, simply turn the light of and back on using the wall switch. If the light is in automatic mode, the motion sensor will turn it off once no motion is detected anymore and the light ON-Time (adjustable in the settings) has passed. If the light is in manual mode it stays on until turned off via the wall switch. The light activation via motion sensor is disabled at day time or if the room it too bright. Daytime is determined by the sun elevation angle which can be adjusted in the settengs. The illuminance threshold is adjustable in the settings as well.

The configuration checker doesn’t find any errors and after reloading the automations the blueprint is shown under Settings / Automations & Scenes / Blueprints. If I create a new automation based on that blueprint with the UI, I can see the following new automation in the automations.yaml file.
- id: '1665587875234'
alias: Light Kitchen 2
description: ''
use_blueprint:
path: Markus/light_motion-manual.yaml
input:
motion_sensor_occupancy: binary_sensor.motion_kitchen_occupancy
target_light:
entity_id:
- switch.light_kitchen_and_dining_area_l1
illumination_template_sensor: sensor.illumination_low_kitchen
light_on_duration: input_number.light_on_time_kitchen
automation_kill_switch: input_boolean.disable_all_automations
helper_switch_manual: input_boolean.light_kitchen_manual
helper_timer: timer.light_kitchen_helper_timer
But unfortunately, the automation it is not shown in the UI. Also the automation is not working.
Could somebody please point me in the right direction to find out why the blueprint is not working?
