I created an automation, which should turn of the lights when my roomba vacuumcleaner is ready.
Alias: Cleaning done in evening
description: “”
- trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id:
- vacuum.maatje
attribute: status
from: returning
to: docked- condition:
- condition: time
after: “23:00:00”
before: “05:00:00”- action:
- action: light.turn_off
metadata: {}
data: {}
target:
entity_id: light.woonkamer
mode: single
However, this automation doesn’t work. I checked the state of the entity, which looks ok. But the automation only works on the status, not on the state.
The status stays at “null”. If i manually change the status, my automation works. But Roomba only updates the state, not the status. How can i change this?
