trigger_entity_id
Will be the entity that triggers the node. It is optional and only required if the node entity filter is not set to exact.
skip_condition

For the trigger: state node custom output will not be evaluated.
output_path
When skip_condition is true this allows you to choose which output to send the message through. Defaults to true the top output
