Hello,  
I have a timer in Home Assistant "timer.laundry" and want to use the event "[finished](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/timer/)" to do something in Node Red but i have no clue how to get it. The state is only "idle" or "active", how i get the event-state? Is it like entity-attributes only with events?

```auto
[{"id":"8b5144df5a29f9ad","type":"debug","z":"21076305a84e1b6f","name":"debug 6","active":true,"tosidebar":true,"console":false,"tostatus":false,"complete":"false","statusVal":"","statusType":"auto","x":2320,"y":4900,"wires":[]},{"id":"ea8ba4ddf24e7006","type":"server-state-changed","z":"21076305a84e1b6f","name":"timer done","server":"300017b1.469da8","version":5,"outputs":2,"exposeAsEntityConfig":"","entityId":"timer.wasche","entityIdType":"exact","outputInitially":false,"stateType":"str","ifState":"finished","ifStateType":"str","ifStateOperator":"is","outputOnlyOnStateChange":true,"for":"0","forType":"num","forUnits":"minutes","ignorePrevStateNull":false,"ignorePrevStateUnknown":false,"ignorePrevStateUnavailable":false,"ignoreCurrentStateUnknown":false,"ignoreCurrentStateUnavailable":false,"outputProperties":[{"property":"payload","propertyType":"msg","value":"","valueType":"entityState"},{"property":"data","propertyType":"msg","value":"","valueType":"eventData"},{"property":"topic","propertyType":"msg","value":"","valueType":"triggerId"}],"x":2140,"y":4900,"wires":[["8b5144df5a29f9ad"],[]]},{"id":"300017b1.469da8","type":"server","name":"Home Assistant","addon":true}]

```

Thank you 🙂
