I'd like to be able to store, in HA, the target of notify.alexa_media_last_called when invoked by a certain automation for later use via a time pattern automation. I don't think I'm explaining this well, so here is a specific use case:
Example
I currently have a routine in the Alexa App that sets an input_boolean to on, and an automation in HA that triggers off that input_boolean to:
Set the input_boolean back to off
announce to 3 target echos a templated script (which contains temperatures for my smoker, as well as meat probe information)
That all currently works fine, but I'd like to be able to store the target of notify.alexa_media_last_called in an input_text or something similar, and use a second automation to repeatedly announce/tts information to that stored echo. That way I could invoke this where I am once, and have it repeat the info to me and keep me updated automatically every 5-10 minutes so I don't have to keep looking at HA to get the data I need.
Is storing notify.alexa_media_last_called's target possible?
