Trigger every 15 minutes

Configuration

The below code isn’t working. I need to remind me the to take the garbage every 15 minutes between a given time period…

Can you suggest a fix please?

##Don't forget the garbage
- id: Don't forget the garbage
  alias: Don't forget the garbage
  trigger:
    platform: time_pattern
    hours:
    minutes: '/15'
    seconds: 
  condition:
    condition: time
    after: '18:40:00'
    before: '18:59:00'
  action:
    - service: tts.google_translate_say
      entity_id: media_player.living_room_speaker
      data_template:
        message: "Don't forget the garbage"

Remove the hours: and seconds: lines. Also, that’s only a 19 minute window. If it’s triggering every 15 minutes, it might only trigger once during that period. (In fact, it might only trigger at 18:45:00, so this might just be equivalent to a corresponding time trigger.) Are you sure this is what you want?

Thanks.i removed the hours and the seconds and it worked. The actual time will be in the morning. In the example was just for testing reasons
