Repeat until, mulitple triggers, trigger.entity_id

Hi there!

I think I have a rather specific problem with repeat until logic.
My automation looks as follows:

alias: Fenster offen!
description: ''
variables:
  time: -5
  timedelay: 5
trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id:
      - binary_sensor.req0542232_state
      - binary_sensor.req0542255_state
      - binary_sensor.req0542235_state
      - binary_sensor.req0542213_state
      - binary_sensor.req0542146_state
      - binary_sensor.peq0569322_state
    from: off
    to: on
condition: []
action:
  - repeat:
      sequence:
        - delay:
            hours: 0
            minutes: 0
            seconds: 5
            milliseconds: 0
        - variables:
            time: '{{ time + timedelay }}'
        - service: input_text.set_value
          data_template:
            entity_id: input_text.message_title
            value: Fensterwarnung
        - service: input_text.set_value
          data_template:
            entity_id: input_text.message_text
            value: >-
              {{ trigger.from_state.attributes.friendly_name }} ist seit {{ time
              }} Sekunden offen.
        - service: script.send_message
      until:
        - condition: state
          entity_id: "{{ trigger.entity_id }}"
          state: off
mode: restart
max: 20

… as you can see, I am trying to accomplish a window open warning, which can be triggered by either of my windows opening.
I would like to repeat this message (ideally displaying the correct time for how long it is already open) with the stop condition being the closing of said window. However, when I am trying to save the code above, I get the error message that the entity_id is invalid: “Message malformed: Entity {{ trigger.entity_id }} is neither a valid entity ID nor a valid UUID for dictionary value @ data[‘action’][0][‘repeat’][‘until’][0][‘entity_id’]”.
However what I don’t get is why the friendly name of the trigger can be evaluated, but the entity_id cannot.

Could anybody help me please? I also searched this forum, but I couldn’t find a solution. I think my problem is that I have mulitple triggers…

Thanks a lot in advance!

Patrick
