Node red , input_booleans and how to stop an automation

What is the state of the boolean ?

Then turn it on.
The current state node in the sequence stops the loop when the boolean is off.

You can use a trigger node and use msg.reset to stop it. You could technically do this with the delay node, stop it by using msg.reset

There would be a small window where it wasn’t holding a message and the reset command would not work.
