Weather: Get forecasts issue

Configuration
1

this one’s driving me crazy, and I can’t figure it out. I’m trying to create a sensor for the forecasted temperature for now. My sensors are all returning unavailable. Here’s what I’ve got so far:

when I run:

service: weather.get_forecasts
target:
  entity_id:
    - weather.openweathermap
data:
  type: hourly

I get back:

weather.openweathermap:
  forecast:
    - condition: sunny
      precipitation_probability: 0
      datetime: "2024-09-04T15:00:00+00:00"
      wind_bearing: 89
      cloud_coverage: 0
      temperature: 68
      pressure: 30.42
      wind_speed: 4.36
      precipitation: 0
      humidity: 51
    - condition: sunny
      precipitation_probability: 0
      datetime: "2024-09-04T18:00:00+00:00"
      wind_bearing: 106
      cloud_coverage: 0
      temperature: 74
      pressure: 30.39
      wind_speed: 4.29
      precipitation: 0
      humidity: 40

(and several more, but for this purpose, I’ll only use the first two)

But, this template sensor returns unavailable and no attribute:

template:
  - trigger:
      - platform: time_pattern
        hours: /1
    action:
      - service: weather.get_forecasts
        data:
          type: hourly
        target:
          entity_id: weather.openweathermap
        response_variable: hourly
    sensor:
      - name: Temperature forecast +1 hour
        unique_id: temperature_forecast_1_hours
        state: "{{ hourly['weather.openweathermap'].forecast[0].temperature }}"
        attributes:
          time: >
            "{{ hourly['weather.openweathermap'].forecast[0].datetime }}"

I’m sure there’s something silly I’m missing, and hopefully someone can spot it easily. Thanks in advance!

It should return unknown until the trigger fires at the top of the hour.

Regarding the attribute, you have too many quotes. Use either the block scalar indicator > or quotes around the template, not both.

template:
  - trigger:
      - platform: time_pattern
        hours: /1
      - platform: homeassistant
        event: start
    action:
      - service: weather.get_forecasts
        data:
          type: hourly
        target:
          entity_id: weather.openweathermap
        response_variable: hourly
      - variables:
          forecasts: "{{ hourly['weather.openweathermap'].forecast }}"
    sensor:
      - name: Temperature forecast +1 hour
        unique_id: temperature_forecast_1_hours
        state: "{{ forecasts[0].temperature }}"
        attributes:
          time: "{{ forecasts[0].datetime }}"
