I would like my automation to watch a directory. If there's a update, then the rest of the automation runs, but only during the night.

I could use a directory watch trigger to run the automation immediately after a change, or use the schedule-trigger to run the automation during the night, but how can I combine those triggers?

Thanks, Vera

I think you should use two automations. The first one on a schedule that then runs a workspace that uses a Rest API call to enable/disable the second automation, which is the one with the directory watch.
