Sun trigger not triggering

[jrel (Jan)]

Hey, the following is not working but calling the routine manually works fine. So sun trigger has an issue:

alias: WZ SZ - sundown an
description: ''
trigger:
  - platform: sun
    event: sunset
    offset: '-50'
condition: []
action:
  - type: turn_on
    device_id: X
    entity_id: light.sz
    domain: light
    brightness_pct: 40
mode: single

Tried different and no offset. Did not change anything.

@jrel

offset: '-50'

Express the amount of offset in HH:MM:SS format. For example, an offset of 50 minutes is:

  offset: '00:50:00'

For more information, refer to Sun Trigger.

yeah tried that already.

But still - no difference.

Copy-paste this into the Template Editor and confirm it reports a valid sunrise time for tomorrow morning at your location:

{{ state_attr('sun.sun', 'next_rising') | as_datetime | as_local }}

If it doesn’t then it implies the system clock isn’t set correctly and/or the timezone offset is incorrect.
