Philips hue motion sensor not triggering

…and one for you Thanks a lot, I think you are right about the way to split the configuration.yaml with the delay of 7-9 seconds I was splitting the script this way in configuration.yaml script: !include_dir_named script Now I am splitting it like this script: !include_dir_merge_named script and it works as fast as when you manage it with the hue app here is my automation in automation/kitchen_dining_motion_sensor.yaml alias: Kitchen Dining Motion Sensor trigger: - platform: sta…

automation.yaml

  - id: Wohnzimmer Dining Motion Sensor
    alias: Wohnzimmer Dining Motion Sensor
    trigger:
      - platform: state
        entity_id: sensor.wohnzimmer_motion_sensor
        to: 'on'
    condition:
      - condition: time
        after: '23:00:00'
        before: '06:00:00'
    action:
      - service: script.turn_on
        data:
          entity_id: script.wohnzimmer_motion

script.yaml

wohnzimmer_motion: !include scripts/wohnzimmer_motion.yaml
wohnzimmer_motion_sensor_timer: include scripts/wohnzimmer_motion_sensor_timer.yaml

  sequence:
    - delay:
        minutes: 1
    - service: light.turn_off
      data:
        entity_id: light.wohnzimmer

The Error is:

2017-11-18 18:07:25 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.config] Invalid config for [script]: expected a dictionary for dictionary value @ data['script']['wohnzimmer_motion_sensor_timer']. Got 'include scripts/wohnzimmer_motion_sensor_timer.yaml'. (See /config/configuration.yaml, line 140). Please check the docs at https://home-assistant.io/components/script/

Thanks for your Help!

Try removing the .yaml in entity_id: script.wohnzimmer_motion_sensor_timer.yaml. There’s no entity with that name.
