Hi all. I’m brand new to the HA life. I am trying to set up an automation that will turn on a zone in my racchio sprinklers for 30 seconds if my ring camera detects motion. Trying to deter cats in the end from going in my yard. I can’t seem to edit the duration for sprinkler time. Every time the sprinklers turn on, they stay on for 10 minutes lol.
I stumbled upon a similar post to what I am looking to do and lifted 2 lines of code by including Data and duration thinking it would help me fix my issue but it did not fix it. Took me a bit to get the code from YAML, but here it is. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

# Device and entity ID go here
