Automation - Template error on recalling a scene

Hi,

I’m trying to create simple automation, but I get an error. Basically, it should recall a different scene based on an input_select value:

- id: 'turn_on_light'
  alias: room lights
  description: turn on lights
  trigger:
  - device_id: dbfae518679e47da8b11dc1abc6f32f6
    domain: deconz
    platform: device
    subtype: turn_on
    type: remote_button_short_release
  condition: []
  action:
  - data_template:
    entity_id: scene.lights_"{{ states('input_select.home_status')|lower }}"
    service: scene.turn_on

I’ve tried some codes alternatives, but without success. I’m still getting this error:

Invalid config for [automation]: expected a dictionary for dictionary value @ data[‘action’][0][‘data_template’]. Got None not a valid value for dictionary value @ data[‘action’][0][‘entity_id’]. Got None.

What am I missing?

Thank you!

PS: this is my first post. I’ve read this post, and I hope I did it well. If not, forgive this noob.
