Hello,

I need some help with my automation. I try to start my vacuum at a time which I set with an input_number slider. The slider just adjust the hour, so I compare the current hour with the slider.

- id: '1558202812387'
  alias: Staubsaugen Uhrzeit
  trigger:
  - platform: template
    value_template: '{{ now().hour == (states("input_number.uhrzeit_staubsauger")
      | int )}}'
  condition: []
  action:
  - entity_id: vacuum.rockrobo
    service: vacuum.start

The template works fine. I tested it in the “developer tool / template”.
The template is “true” if the current hour matches the value of the input_number.

Somehow the automation doesn’t start, so it seems to be a problem with the trigger.

I hope some of you can help me.
Thank you in advance.
