I’m trying to set up an automation that when i arm my alarm, it checks all my window sensors (mixture of device and binary sensors) and will then send a notification to my phone to say X window is open.
This is fairly straightforward for a single sensor, but i’m having some problems trying to incorporate multiple sensors with a condition and action. They have to be independent though as some windows may be closed and others open.
For action type i’ve tried “repeat”:
repeat:
count: '1'
sequence:
- choose:
- conditions:
- type: is_open
condition: device
device_id: 20963e11fa1ce93c59e42a7e8d0f13e1
entity_id: binary_sensor.openclose_24
domain: binary_sensor
sequence:
- service: notify.mobile_app_g8341
data:
message: Bedroom window open
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: binary_sensor.office_window
state: 'on'
sequence:
- service: notify.mobile_app_g8341
data:
message: Bathroom window open
default: []
But this only runs through the first condition.
I’ve also tried action type “choose” with multiple options:
choose:
- conditions:
- type: is_open
condition: device
device_id: 20963e11fa1ce93c59e42a7e8d0f13e1
entity_id: binary_sensor.openclose_24
domain: binary_sensor
sequence:
- service: notify.mobile_app_g8341
data:
message: Bathroom window open
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: binary_sensor.office_window
state: 'on'
sequence:
- service: notify.mobile_app_g8341
data:
message: Bedroom window open
default: []
But that always picks the first option, it may go on to the second option if the first condition is false i haven’t tested that.
Any ideas? Is the automation i’m trying to create even possible? or should i stick to individual automations for each window sensor?
TIA.
