I’m trying to use the Choose function in my script but it says I haven’t set any trigger IDs even tho I have.

You set them in the triggers for a wait_for_trigger. That’s not the same as for an automation’s trigger and that’s why it says you haven’t set any trigger IDs.
In addition, the resulting object from a triggered wait_for_trigger would be a wait.triggertrigger
Try replacing the Trigger Conditions in your choose statement with Template Conditions like this:
- choose:
- conditions: "{{ wait.trigger.id == '0001' }}"
sequence:
- service: shell_command.alexacontrol
data:
command: textcommand
device: DeskDot
message: open spotify
- conditions: "{{ wait.trigger.id == '0002' }}"
sequence:
- stop: End of Script
default: []

You are a gentleman and a scholar. That was the trick thank you buddy. I see the wait.trigger data now in the docs.

Just wanted to update this with the way I managed to do it with mobile app notifications:
Process:
trigger script via an automation
Script runs and sends notification to my partners iPhone with 3 options for her to choose from (Yes please, No thanks, Tea Please)
When she responds by pushing a button in her notification, the response then tiggers the matching ‘event’ and assigned a trigger ID (I keep these all matching as it makes easier for me follow - i.e. YES_COFFEE is the action in the notification and trigger ID for the template)
The choose function then chooses the action to run based on the button that was pressed in the notification. the condition of the choose option is a value template that matches the trigger ID (YES_COFFEE)
