Store the value of the roller shutter in the helper

Configuration
1

Hello everyone,

I would like to store the value of the status of the opening of a roller shutter in a helper. Unfortunately, this does not work with the following code. Do you have any idea what this could be? If I replace the value with a number, it will be written.

Thank you very much!

What does this resolve to in Developer tools → Templates?

{{ state_attr('cover.bf7f375a7076bdec9ee6582d200cb120','current_position') | int }}

How would it have to be stated correctly? I want to save the status of the opening. Thank you, best regards

I cant tell you unless you do what I asked you to.

I don’t think I understand the question correctly here because of my knowledge of English. I integrated the code into an automation because I assumed that the status of the opening could be accessed.

Test this:

{{ state_attr('cover.bf7f375a7076bdec9ee6582d200cb120','current_position') | int }}

What does it say in the right hand result box?

Hi, thank you very much for the detailed explanation! I’m slowly working my way in :wink: The result is actually “Open” and not a numerical value. What would it have to be correct for me to get the position in percent? Thank you very much!

Go to Developer Tools → States

Look for your entity in the list then look to the right hand column to see what attributes are available and what values they have.
