Why can't I use a helper for an automation?

Configuration
1

I have 4 light bulb’s that I want to use as a “group”, so I created a helper > group > Light group. I added the entities I want to control, and gave it a name and an entity ID.

Then I go to automations, Add automation, set sunset as a trigger, no conditions, and for action : device > There I want to select the group i’ve created, but that isn’t visible there.

Somebody that have any idea what i do wrong?

Don’t use a device action, use light.turn_on or light.turn_off Call A Service
