Several triggers with conditions on each triger

Configuration
1

I want to run automation whenever one of a list of cameras starts detecting motion and the object detected by that camera is a person.

So far I can set triggers for all the cameras I want and it works (because triggers work with an OR condition), but how do I check on each trigger for another entity (detected object) and just go on if that condition is met?

I guess I cannot use the conditions below because ALL cameras would need to be detecting persons (because conditions work with an AND condition).

On the conditions (after triggers) I will just check if a sensor I created (HOUSE IS ARMED) is on or not.

I hope I was clear enough.

You can do an OR in the conditions. Like this from the documentation.

condition:
  alias: "Paulus home OR temperature below 20"
  condition: or
  conditions:
    - condition: state
      entity_id: "device_tracker.paulus"
      state: "home"
    - condition: numeric_state
      entity_id: "sensor.temperature"
      below: 20

Just to be clear, before starting to do it for all the 9 cameras

  • Triggers: any camera starts detection
  • Conditions:
    ** House is Armed AND
    ** Any camera has object = person (with OR)

Is that it?

Perfect.
It’s working like a charm.

Here’s my YAML for future reference:
