When creating my automation, I can't find groups, only devices

Two smart plugs. One smart switch. Did my first ever automation (I’ve been using Haas for about 3 days) and I can find the switch as a trigger and I can find the devices, the plugs, but I thought the purpose of having groups was so that I didn’t have to have 2 actions in my automation.

You might have to provide a little more detail on how you set up the group and the yaml of your automation.

I assume you set up your plugs and the switch as a group of switches, correct?
Did you hide the indiviual group members or are they still available separately?

Use state triggers, not device triggers. State triggers show all entities, including groups. Device triggers only show, well, devices.
Same for actions, use call service, not device.
