Input_numbers and problem publishing mqtt

Configuration
1

Hello everybody.
I can’t get the values ​​I select with the cursor to publish. Where am I wrong? I’m going crazy…

## configuration.yaml

input_number:
  target_temp:
    name: Temperature
    initial: 26
    min: 18
    max: 30
    step: 1

## automation.yaml

automation:
  - alias: "Temp slider moved"
    trigger:
      platform: state
      entity_id: input_number.target_temp
    action:
      service: mqtt.publish
      data:
        topic: "setTemperature"
        retain: true
        payload: "{{ states('input_number.target_temp') | int }}"

Why are messages not published ???

When you look in automation and adjust the temp slider, does it show as triggered? Should flash on top of the trigger with the message “Triggered”

I’m not very experienced … If you mean when I move the cursor to raise or lower the temperature, the temperature value appears above the cursor …

I mean in Automations, when you look at it in the GUI editor.
As shown in the blog: 2022.3: Select and play media
triggered

payload_template: "{{ states('input_number.target_temp') | int }}"
          ^^^^^
