Hello,
I'm am trying to create an automation where the solar shade blind closes/opens when the temperature in the room reaches a certain level. I thought I had cracked it but it's not working. Any ideas what is wrong? I've tried OpenBlind at 100% and 0% and moved govee Temperature sensor from fridge and back to try to trigger the action.
metadata:
name: Close the blind when the temperature on govee rises over 70 on condition that it is between sunrise and sunsrt

device: Govee Temperature - Living Room

condition:
type: time.between
after: SUNRISE
before: SUNSET

Have you tried to activate a blinds scene instead of using percent. Just create some blinds scenes starting from closed with the values 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% open. I'm using this in a script with simple Hey Google commands. Works like a charm. Good luck!
