Hey! i want to create a rule to dehumidify a cellar with the script of “ kisseler S. ”. Therefore I wanted to use the outside humidity of openweathermap. Unfortunately, the item “localCurrentHumidity” always contains the unit “%”, which leads to an error when casting. is the error due to the item or…

thanks to all! the solution finally delivered mstormi . I had to change: var h = (localCurrentHumidity.state as DecimalType).doubleValue to var h = (localCurrentHumidity.state as QuantityType<Number>).doubleValue inside the rule.
