Hi,
I’m totally newbie writing HA templates and I created the next script to use in a fan template entity. I tested the script and works fine changing the slider and executing it, but I don’t have idea how to pass the input_number like an argument to the script inside the fan template.
alias: Study fan speed action
sequence:
- choose:
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: input_number.study_fan_speed_selector
state: '0.0'
sequence:
- choose:
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: switch.speed_1
state: 'on'
sequence:
- service: switch.turn_off
target:
entity_id: switch.speed_1
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: switch.speed_2
state: 'on'
sequence:
- service: switch.turn_off
target:
entity_id: switch.speed_2
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: switch.speed_3
state: 'on'
sequence:
- service: switch.turn_off
target:
entity_id: switch.speed_3
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: switch.speed_4
state: 'on'
sequence:
- service: switch.turn_off
target:
entity_id: switch.speed_4
default: []
- service: input_boolean.turn_off
target:
entity_id: input_boolean.study_fan_state
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: input_number.study_fan_speed_selector
state: '25.0'
sequence:
- service: switch.turn_on
target:
entity_id: switch.speed_1
- service: input_boolean.turn_on
target:
entity_id: input_boolean.study_fan_state
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: input_number.study_fan_speed_selector
state: '50.0'
sequence:
- service: switch.turn_on
target:
entity_id: switch.speed_2
- service: input_boolean.turn_on
target:
entity_id: input_boolean.study_fan_state
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: input_number.study_fan_speed_selector
state: '75.0'
sequence:
- service: switch.turn_on
target:
entity_id: switch.speed_3
- service: input_boolean.turn_on
- conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: input_number.study_fan_speed_selector
state: '100.0'
sequence:
- service: switch.turn_on
target:
entity_id: switch.speed_4
- service: input_boolean.turn_on
target:
entity_id: input_boolean.study_fan_state
default: []
mode: single
and this other script:
alias: Study fan speed set
sequence:
- service: input_number.set_value
target:
entity_id: input_number.study_fan_speed_selector
data:
value: '{{ percentage }}'
- service: script.study_fan_speed_action
mode: single
And I need to pass the input_number value to create an entity fan with this code, but in not working:
- platform: template
fans:
study_fan:
friendly_name: "Ventilador Estudio"
value_template: "{{ states('input_boolean.study_fan_state') }}"
percentage_template: "{{ states('input_number.study_fan_speed_selector') }}"
turn_on:
service: script.study_fan_speed_set
data:
value: 25.0
turn_off:
service: script.study_fan_speed_set
data:
value: 0.0
set_percentage:
service: script.study_fan_speed_set
data:
value: "{{ percentage }}"
speed_count: 4
Logger: homeassistant.helpers.script.ventilador_estudio
Source: helpers/script.py:1334
First occurred: 3:40:10 PM (2 occurrences)
Last logged: 3:40:25 PM
Ventilador Estudio: Error executing script. Invalid data for call_service at pos 1: expected float for dictionary value @ data['value']
What I’m doing wrong? Thanks.
I’ tried another implementation based on this post: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/help-new-template-fan-integration-percentage/286823/12?u=jjmuriel , but the error is the same.

I checked my code and I had a wrong input_number entity name. This is the fully working code:

I really wish this could just be fixed in HA. Thanks for this tho!

Hi @jjmuriel I tried your lastest code but keeps giving me this error:Error executing script. Invalid data for call_service at pos 1: expected float for dictionary value @ data[‘value’].
I know you said that it was working for you but not for me. I even setup the helpers correctly but no luck. Regards

I expect this information can help you.

Hi my config looks pretty the same as mine but my esp code is simpler 
I copied all your code and done the input number but the script called study fan speed set keeps giving me the error expects a float 
I feel quite that I can’t make it work even when I full copied your code. Thanks anyway
