I’ve created a light group in my configuration.yaml with two lights.
I’m trying to create an automation for my new Aqara cube to step up brightness on rotate clockwise on the light group.
I’m struggling with the action part

This fails with
Message malformed: extra keys not allowed @ data[‘action’][0][‘type’]
alias: Alex Cube Rotate Right

trigger:

platform: device
type: device_rotated

condition: []
action:
- type: brightness_increase

This kind of works but is very erratic
I am trying to continually make the light brighter smoothly as I rotate the cube to the right

Try adding a transition to the service call
Adding a transition was a good tip
Now working as expected
