Need help for blueprint syntax

Configuration Blueprints
1

I’m creating a blueprint that have a repeated part with a delay between each repetition. I want the part that repeat to be as input while the delay and the repeat remain but i don’t know how to do that.

The part i want to be input is the below part

        - type: toggle
          device_id: 3b2d553bf505829d38d28de5331dc72b
          entity_id: switch.ceilingfan_switch
          domain: switch

Here is the full action part of the blue print

action:
- choose:
  - conditions:
    - condition: trigger
      id: single_press
    sequence:
    - type: toggle
      device_id: 7debea22572eb215ecf7e73252dcafbe
      entity_id: switch.walllamp
      domain: switch
  - conditions:
    - condition: trigger
      id: double_press
    sequence:
    - type: toggle
      device_id: 767fac01b8049f4ebe134a948a9500bf
      entity_id: switch.ceilinglamp
      domain: switch
  - conditions:
    - condition: trigger
      id: long_press
    sequence:
    - repeat:
        count: '10'
        sequence:
        - type: toggle
          device_id: 3b2d553bf505829d38d28de5331dc72b
          entity_id: switch.ceilingfan_switch
          domain: switch
        - delay:
            hours: 0
            minutes: 0
            seconds: 0
            milliseconds: 500
  default: []
mode: restart

Have you read through the blueprint documentation? Here is the relevant portion on inputs:

I already checked this tutorial but it didn’t help :slightly_frowning_face:

How did it not help? Based on your original post, it doesn’t appear that you even attempted to set it up yourself. If you have, please post your attempts so we can tell you where you went wrong.

I already checked the url you posted before, it is actually the first page i learned blueprint from.

anyway, I had many failed trial before making this post and here some of them.

action:
- choose:
  - conditions:
    - condition: trigger
      id: single_press
    sequence: !input 'single_press'
  - conditions:
    - condition: trigger
      id: double_press
    sequence: !input 'double_press'
  - conditions:
    - condition: trigger
      id: long_press
    sequence:
    - repeat:
        count: '10'
        sequence:
        !input 'long_press'
        - delay:
            hours: 0
            minutes: 0
            seconds: 0
            milliseconds: 500
  default: []
mode: restart

action:
- choose:
  - conditions:
    - condition: trigger
      id: single_press
    sequence: !input 'single_press'
  - conditions:
    - condition: trigger
      id: double_press
    sequence: !input 'double_press'
  - conditions:
    - condition: trigger
      id: long_press
    sequence:
    - repeat:
        count: '10'
        sequence:
        - !input 'long_press'
        - delay:
            hours: 0
            minutes: 0
            seconds: 0
            milliseconds: 500
  default: []
mode: restart

but i finally managed to achieve what i want by adding a useless repeat loop that have sequence on it to be able to add the input with the delay:
