Manage a configurable timer to turn off climate entity

Configuration
1

Hi everyone,

In my home, I’ve managed all the AC systems through Home Assistant, so I don’t have an external thermostat.

I’m using a generic thermostat helper, and what I’m trying to implement is an automation that every time I change the climate state from “off” to “heat”, asks me if I want to set a timer, and if so, allows me to set the timer duration and use that timer to turn off the AC.

At the moment, I’m not able to show a prompt every time I change the state of the climate entity that asks for confirmation and duration.

Can anyone help me?

I’ve create an automation

alias: AC Timer Popup Confirmation
description: ""
triggers:
  - entity_id: climate.testtest
    from: "off"
    to: heat
    trigger: state
actions:
  - data:
      target: THIS
      dismissable: false
      title: Vuoi impostare un Timer?
      right_button: IMPOSTA
      right_button_action:
        service: timer.start
        data:
          entity_id: timer.ac_heating_timer
      left_button: "NO"
      left_button_action:
        service: browser_mod.close_popup
        data:
          browser_id: THIS
      content:
        - name: duration
          label: Durata
          default: "30:00"
          selector:
            select:
              multiple: false
              options:
                - label: 15 Minuti
                  value: "15:00"
                - label: 30 Minuti
                  value: "30:00"
                - label: 60 Minuti
                  value: "60:00"
    action: browser_mod.popup

and now i’m able to set the timer but i’ve some problem whit the popup close.
Using the browser mod popup in a script i’m not able to manage the popup only on the specific browser_id so the popup is displayed on all device, this is not a problem but after i close the popup it remain open on the other device
