### {% linkable_title Template trigger %}
<p class='note warning'>
If your template trigger has no `entity_id` listed, then it is evaluted on *every* state change for *every* entity. Instead you should create a [template sensor](/components/sensor.template/) or [template binary sensor](/components/binary_sensor.template/) and use that in your automation.
</p>
Template triggers work by evaluating a [template] on each state change. The trigger will fire if the state change caused the template to render 'true'. This is achieved by having the template result in a true boolean expression (`{% raw %}{{ is_state('device_tracker.paulus', 'home') }}{% endraw %}`) or by having the template render 'true' (example below).
With template triggers you can also evaluate attribute changes by using is_state_attr (`{% raw %}{{ is_state_attr('climate.living_room', 'away_mode', 'off') }}{% endraw %}`)
