I’m following the docs and trying to create a script to set a datetime input to the current date/time but it’s giving me an error:

  - service: input_datetime.set_datetime
    entity_id: input_datetime.date_and_time
    data_template:
      datetime: "{{ now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') }}"

Failed to call service input_datetime/set_datetime. Invalid datetime specified: {{ now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') }} for dictionary value @ data['datetime']
