Resolved: Help with input_number in automations.yaml

Configuration
1

Hi, i’m trying to put the value from an input number in duration of a motion sensor delay to turn off the lights…
This is the code from automations.yaml:

    trigger:
      - platform: state
        entity_id: binary_sensor.mo2
        to: 'off'
        for:
          minutes: "{{states('input_number.luci_auto_off_min') | float}}"

and this from configuration.yaml

    input_number:
      luci_auto_off_min:
      name: Minutes for Auto switch off lights
      min: 1
      max: 30
      step: 1
      unit_of_measurement: step

But i’m getting this error:

Invalid config for [automation]: expected float for dictionary value @ data[‘for’][‘minutes’]. Got None.

What am I missing?
Thank you!!

Nevermind… Resolved this way:

  trigger:
    - platform: state
      entity_id: binary_sensor.mo2
      to: 'off'
      for: "00:{{states('input_number.luci_auto_off_min') | int}}:00"

Yaml makes me… very sad. :frowning:
