Trigger automation on bigger than or equal

Configuration
1

I have an automation that needs to be triggered when a numeric value becomes 50 or bigger.
I only see the option to have the trigger when the value is bigger.

Is there an option via the gui to do this? Maybe I am just looking over the option…

You can set the threshold value in the numeric state trigger to 49.9 or you can use a template trigger.

Thanks for the quick reaction!
It really needs to be exactly 50 ;-).

I understand it is indeed not possible via the gui?

That depends on how you define GUI…

Template triggers can be set up in the Automation Editor, does that count or not?

Set the condition to “not below 50”?

indeed: that comes close enough. For a value that is not changing often this is ok.

I can indeed write it in yaml ;-).
