Trigger automation when score changes by a specified amount

[mvisic]

Hey fellow sports fans,

I have set up an automation to display a dashboard and play a sound everytime my Australian Football League (AFL) team scores using:

trigger: state
entity_id:

• sensor.team_tracker
  attribute: team_score

In AFL, teams can score a point (1) or a goal (6 points). I only want to trigger the automation when they score a goal ie only when the total score increments by 6.

How can I set up this trigger?

I resolved this by adding a value template to the automation

{{ trigger.to_state.attributes.team_score | int - trigger.from_state.attributes.team_score | int == 6 }}
