USING global VARIABLE IN yaml code - Regis - 11-20-2023
Hi, I want to use the same input (telecommand) to open a gate, and after to close it.
how can I define a boolean variable (VAR1 for instance) and test it to know if the gate is open or closed ?
I need to use this variable in several scripts. can you give me the syntax of the command to write, and in what .yaml file to use : configuration.yaml ? or automation.yaml ? (joined) or others ?
Thank's for your help

not need to config in yaml. just add a binary sensor for detect door, create AUTOMATION in home assistant: IF digital input=true THEN xxxxxxx
