[SOLVED] Invalid config for [automation]: [message] is an invalid option for [automation]

I’ve gotten this strange error lately in my Log and it seems that the automations isn’t running, atleast the lights isn’t coming online in the evening!

Did a ctrl-f but almost all my automations have a “message” part and since the error message doesn’t include a file or row I’m not sure where to start.

Logger: homeassistant.config
Source: config.py:415

Invalid config for [automation]: [message] is an invalid option for [automation]. Check: automation->action->1->message. (See ?, line ?).

If you open your config file with VSCode with the home assistant extension installed it will highlight syntax errors like this.

Thanks, opened up all the automations containing message and found it at last!
