Templating curl commands

Configuration
1

Hi guys, I need some help.
I’m trying to simplify the customization of a file which is full of curl commands addressed to a single ip. So, I was trying to use an input_text variable to change the ip address only one time in the case I had to change it.
This is the input_text:

input_text:
  server_ip_address:
    name: Server Ip Address
    initial: http://192.168.1.180/

and this is an example of a virtual switch:

switch:
  platform: command_line
  switches:
    server_switch:
      command_on: "curl {{ states('input_text.server_ip_address')}}on_command" 
      command_off: "curl {{ states('input_text.server_ip_address')}}off_command"
      friendly_name: Server Switch

If I copy my lines into the jinja the templates editor they got rendered correctly like this:

switch:
  platform: command_line
  switches:
    server_switch:
      command_on: "curl http://192.168.1.180/on_command" 
      command_off: "curl http://192.168.1.180/off_command"
      friendly_name: Server Switch

but when i try to use them, they do not work. Should I change something in your opinion?
(the switch works fine without templating)
Thank you,
Max

Oh, ok, shell_commands work, I guess I’ll have to write a couple of scripts to make switches work…
