How to control a Input_Boolean in an automation

Configuration
1

I will make a very long story short… I need to have an automation that when it runs flips or toggles a boolean input.

If it is true when it runs I want it to be changed to false and visa versa. Pretty darn simple…

The only problem is when I go into create an automation when I go to the then do… I can’t find how i select the input_boolean.

When I go in here I can find my input_boolean here.

But when I go to automation and the then do section … It is not a device… So that will not work… It is not showing as a switch… I just don’t know how to call it or find it at that point. I am sure it is something obvious or silly I just can’t figure it out.

Add Action → Helper → Input Boolean → Select the desired service

Call Service then Input Boolean.

If using the visual editor, at “Add Action”, select “Other Actions”, then select “Call Service”, then “Input Boolean” for the options.
