Hi,
Looking for some help with an automation…
Basically, I want to send a notification to my LG TV when the heating is above a certain temperature…I have other automations that send a message to my tv so I know that works but I’m not sure if I’ve got this particular automation correct
- id: '1582565127427'
alias: Heating Notify
description: ''
trigger:
- above: '18'
entity_id: climate.heating
platform: numeric_state
condition: []
action:
- data:
data:
icon: /config/images/hive.png
message: Heating is now at 18
service: notify.tv
Is numeric_state correct for this? This particular entity (climate.heating) has a state attribute of ‘current_temperature’ so not sure if I should be using that?
Thanks

Hi,
I’m trying to write an automation to trigger when i change the set value of the thermostat. I’m using the generic_thermostat ( climate.aneks.room1 ).
I have tried with the following , but it never triggers.
- alias: 'Set thermostat room1'
trigger:
platform: template
value_template: "{{ state_attr('climate.aneks_room1','temperature') }}"
action:
- service: notify.pushbullet
data:
message: 'Thermostat is changed'
Any thoughts on how this can …
Template Sensor is the way to go here I believe.

You need a template trigger for this because you want to check an attribute of an antity, as you have it now it takes the state from the entity (auto, heat, cool…).
Try with a teigger like this:
trigger:
platform: template
value_template: "{{ state_attr('climate.heating', 'current_temperature') | int > 18 }}"
Should it look like this?
- id: '1582565127427'
alias: Heating Notify
description: ''
trigger:
platform: template
value_template: "{{ state_attr('climate.heating', 'current_temperature') | int > 18 }}"
entity_id: climate.heating
condition: []
action:
- data:
data:
icon: /config/images/hive.png
message: Heating is now at 18
service: notify.tv
Sorry, all new to the automations! - I try to do most stuff in the GUI…
The indentation is off, try like rhis:
- id: '1582565127427'
alias: Heating Notify
description: ''
trigger:
platform: template
value_template: "{{ state_attr('climate.heating', 'current_temperature') | int > 18 }}"
action:
- data:
data:
icon: /config/images/hive.png
message: Heating is now at 18
service: notify.tv
Will give this a try now, thank you
