Timer issues

Configuration
1

I am a newbe to Homeassistant, so please be patient as I have a lot to learn …

Ok, I triy to configure:
After a Trigger by an RFiD-Tag, I want to

  • show a notification
  • switch on my Aircon (disabled)
  • start a timer for eg 15 minutes
    After the 15 Minutes, I want to
  • show a notification
  • switch off my Aircon (not yet implemented)

Sounds easy, but I don’t get it to work. I have 2 automatations, both seems to work independently, but the 2nd one is never triggered.

Here is my Automatation.yaml:


- id: Timerstop
  alias: 15 Min Timer Stop
  description: ''
  triggers:
  - trigger: event
    event_type: timer.finished
    event_data:
      entity_id: timer.15_min_timer
      message: 15 Min Timer stop
  conditions: []
  actions:
  - action: notify.notify
    metadata: {}
    data:
      message: 15 Min Timer stopped!!!
      title: HA MBR Timer Stopped
  mode: single
- id: '1735576701795'
  alias: Tag is scanned
  description: ''
  triggers:
  - trigger: tag
    tag_id: 28c39e1c-59d2-4f5b-8e7f-7786d519ead4
  conditions: []
  actions:
  - action: notify.notify
    metadata: {}
    data:
      message: NFC Tag detected!!!
      title: HA NFC
  - action: timer.start
    metadata: {}
    data:
      duration: 15:00:00
    target:
      entity_id: timer.15_min_timer
  - type: turn_on
    device_id: 945348140a099f7e6dc2f911002208f4
    entity_id: c54f0749e0e129755012a833c422c24f
    domain: switch
    enabled: false
  mode: single

I running am HA version 2024.12.5 on a Raspberry 4b.

Any idea what is wrong here?
Thanks!

Remove the message line from the trigger - that belongs in the action block (where you’ve already got it).

Thanks! That fixed the issue
