[Solved] Need help for input_text.set_value

1

This formula works well in template

{%set qui = 'arnaud' %}
{{states.person[qui].last_changed.timestamp()}}

How to write this in an automation without an error

    - service: input_text.set_value
      target:
        entity_id: "input_text.{{qui}}_date_dernier_changement"
      data_template:
        value: > 
          {%set qui = 'arnaud' %}
          {{states.person[qui].last_changed.timestamp()}}

I’ve tried many combinations with data, data_template, value, value_template. None of them works.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards

Use variables:

description: …

variables:
  qui: arnaud

trigger:
…

action:
  - service: input_text.set_value
    data:
      value: '{{ states.person[qui].last_changed.timestamp() }}'
    target:
      entity_id: input_text.{{qui}}_date_dernier_changement

Thanks a lot but I have still an issue when calling this script.
The script called by an automation

sauvegarde_presence:
  sequence:
  - variables:
      qui: {{ who }}
#
  - service: input_text.set_value
    target:
      entity_id: "input_text.{{qui}}_date_dernier_changement"
    data:
      value: "{{states.person[qui].last_changed.timestamp()}}"
  - service: input_text.set_value
    target:
      entity_id: "input_text.{{qui}}_etat_dernier_changement"
    data:
      value: "{{states('person.'~ qui)}}"

and the automation:

  action:
  - choose:
      - conditions:
          - condition: template
            value_template: "{{(as_timestamp(now(),0)-as_timestamp(states.sensor.uptime.last_changed,0)) | int(0) > 180}}"
          - condition: template
            value_template: "{{ states('input_text.arnaud_etat_dernier_changement') !=  states('person.arnaud') }}"
          - condition: template
            value_template: "{{ states('person.arnaud') != 'unknown'}}"
        sequence:
          - service: script.sauvegarde_presence
            data:
              who: 'arnaud'

and the error message

Error loading /config/configuration.yaml: invalid key: "OrderedDict([('who', None)])"
in "/config/integrations/../scripts/Sauvegarde présence.yaml", line 9, column 0

The issue seems to be in the transfer of the parameter from the automation to the script.
Any idea how to solve this ?

Found !

Sorry . The error is in the syntax of the sripit = quotes forgotten

  - variables:
      qui: "{{ who }}"
