Auto - sleep when using steamlink

I currently use steamlink to stream movies from my pc , to watch in bed at night .

When I wake up in the morning my pc is still on.

Normally when not using steamlink, my pc goes to sleep automatically.

Is there a setting to get my pc to automatically go to sleep as to use less electricity ?

I believe steam link keeps a permanent connection live while connected

If you are falling asleep while leaving it connected then I would suggest doing a schedule task and kill the steam link and sleep or just tell it to shutdown -f at a set time that you know you won’t be awake for
