Help: Syntax issue with Script

Configuration
1

I am trying to create a script to notify a mobile phone when the alarm is triggered, this script takes a message variable from the calling automation and has two options 1. to disable the alarm and 2. to look at the cameras. Both of which lead to lovelace pages.

I am getting an error: “Actions: extra keys not allowed @ data[0][‘variables’]”

Can anyone spot the mistake and suggest corrections please? Thank you!

  mobile_new_notify:
    alias: Mobile Notify me
    description: announcements to my mobile
    sequence:
      variables:
        action_1: '{{ ''1_'' ~ context.id }}'
        action_2: '{{ ''2_'' ~ context.id }}'
      service: notify.mobile_app_x_phone
      data:
        message: '{{ message }}'
        data:
          actions:
            - action: '{{ action_1 }}'
              title: Disable Alarm
            - action: '{{ action_2 }}'
              title: View Cameras
      wait_for_trigger:
        - platform: event
          event_type: mobile_app_notification_action

        - platform: event
          event_type: mobile_app_notification_action
          event_data:
            action: '{{ action_2 }}'
      choose:
        - conditions: '{{ wait.trigger.event.data.action == action_1 }}'

The error is due to the fact all actions in your script lack a leading hyphen.
