How to use variable option in automation

[bkbartk]

Hello,

I have several sensors like this

- platform: history_stats
  name: "replay_lamp_milan"
  entity_id: switch.lamp_milan
  state: "on"
  type: count
  start: >
    {{ as_timestamp(now()) - (7*86400) }}

and for my automation, I would like to get the corresponding entity id.
I tried state_att, but the only available attributes are those

state_class: measurement
unit_of_measurement: ""
icon: mdi:chart-line
friendly_name: replay_lamp_milan

How can I get the rerelated entity_id without having to specify this separate.

Post, or at least describe, the automation. How are the History Stats sensors related to the automation?

How can I get the related entity_id without having to specify this separate.

Your desired output is the entity ID… what are the inputs?

Actually I was trying to improve the vacation ligthing blueprint

Vacation Lighting - Replay Historical Lighting

I’ve taken the concept others have suggested on this forum and created a blueprint to replay lighting behavior. Credit to this awesome community! Description: A blueprint to replay the same lighting behavior from the previous week. For each light that will be controlled as part of your vacation/away lighting, a ‘history_stats’ sensor should be created to track the historical behavior. The blueprint maps each ‘history_stats’ sensor to its corresponding light entity then replays the on/off beh…

at the moment I have 18 lights, and because of some renamings of entities I found that my config was broken.
and I thought it would be much simpler if I could improve one and onther.

So my input of the blueprint would be my history_stats

  input:
    vacation_mode_toggle:
      name: Vacation Mode - Input Boolean
      selector:
        entity:
          domain: input_boolean
    replay_sensors:
      name: replay_sensors
      description: replay_sensors
      selector:
        entity:
          domain:
            - sensor
          multiple: true

then depending on the selected stat, a light of switch should toggle.
the one related to entity_id
so my input would be: sensor.replay_lamp_milan and the result switch.lamp_milan
so something like this: {{ state_attr('sensor.replay_lamp_milan','entity_id') }}
but not state_atrr because that one doesn’t know entity_id
