Hello,
My automations haven’t been working since the update. I tried creating a new one, but it’s not being accepted. However, the automation.yaml file shows what I entered. What’s going on?
It’s also showing that “weekday:” isn’t correct.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Regards, Jürgen
Error message when saving the automation:
I think there was an automatic translation, Thanks for the notice

If you don’t confidently write yaml then stick with the GUI.
And when you post yaml make sure to post it as text in a code blick </>.
Your indentations are off on the weekdays. That is the issue.

The indentation is correct. Your triggers are fine. https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/automation/trigger/#multiple-weekdays
This is a false positive. The VSCode Home Assistant extension is hopelessly out of date and is reporting all sorts of things that aren’t actually errors.

This is what the GUI generates.

triggers:
- trigger: time
at: "10:00:00"
weekday:

- tue
- wed

The error message mentions a timeout when trying to save the file.
This could be the storage media hardware failing.
Flash medias typically fail when writing, but still works with reading.

That’s essentially the same as what they have. The extra spaces in the list indentation aren’t important.
