Hi there,
need some help while filtering button states.
I have the following code, listing every shelly firmware button.
I want to exclude every beta button.
What do i need to change?
{{ states.button | selectattr('attributes.device_class', 'eq', 'update') | map(attribute='entity_id') | list }}
gives me:
[
"button.energymeter_serverrack_ota_update",
"button.energymeter_serverrack_ota_update_beta",
"button.gassensor_technikraum_ota_update",
"button.gassensor_technikraum_ota_update_beta",
.

Thanks for your help.

After updating to Core version 2022.4.7 I have noticed many of the front end config values appear to be unpopulated. As an example below you can see the Tag value is missing. When I check automations.yaml I do see the tag ID, and the automation itself works fine.
Another issue I noticed was the actions itself were missing, I did update them and hit save, (had not realised it was an issue at this point). Iv mainly noticed this missing on automations related to Tags.
Digging further, when I access the automation from the tags menu option:-
The Action is still missing
However when I go into automations and open the same automation from there, the actions are visible
Here is my basic understanding:-
When you create an automation via a tag, it essentially creates an automation in your standard list of automations and these configs are stored in your automations.yaml.
As of now I see the right configs in my automations.yaml and the automation itself works as it should, the frontend however shows missing configs based on how you accessed the automation configurations itself.
I have also noticed, however unable to reproduce, duplication of automations when editing an automation and saving from the tags sections of home assistant.
If I’m able to reproduce this, I will update it here. until then any support would be appreiated.
Cheers

Hi,
i want to use the gui for set the position of the cover, but it isn’t working.
Error Message:
“Fehler beim Aufrufen des Diensts cover/set_cover_position. Entity cover.jalschlaf does not support this service”
Modbus Cover/Shutter configuration:
i can open and close the cover, but i am not be able to set the position.
NodeRed:
If i use Modbus directly to set the position it is working. How can i fix the service, for setting the position. so the gui elements which depends on it will also work?
best regards
chris

Hello,
Is there a way to have the Android notification automatically expanded when received?
When the notification comes in it looks like below. I have to press the down arrow to expand it.
When a notification is received, I’d like for it to already be expanded, like below. Does anyone know if there is a way to do this?

Maybe I’m missing something basic here but for the life of me I cant get this to work…
Purchased a ESP WROOM32 Board, the Light Sensor and the tri colour LED. All good so far.
Installed the ESPHome into Home Assistant seems OK
Dragged the Home-Assistant_Glow.YAML into the ESPHome directory, it appeared in the ESPHome page. Selected “Install” it complied a .BIN file, then allowed me to download it - so far so good
ESP device now flashed blue and is on my Network, I can under ESPHome “Visit” the device and see it count up energy when an LED is flashed at the sensor…
SO What am I missing as NONE of the Entities show up in HA and therefore I cant configure the Energy page…
HELP this is driving me nuts !

Hello
I spend a lot of time troubleshooting entities. Too much time. They keep going “unavailable”. I can ping each one and pull up the Tasmota web page. I have my home assistant on a Proxmox Virtual Server, before that I had HA on a Rasberry Pi until the SD card became corrupt. All my devices are on there own subnet. Is there something in my basic topology that will cause issues? In other words, should I have HA on it’s own subnet (like I have) with it’s own dedicated machine (other than Rasberry Pi) and not a virtual server?
Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.

I added the min/max integration then created two helper entities:
But the min and max sensors always contain the current sensor value:
Do I not understand the integration, or did I set it up wrong?

I have seen multiple questions about how to have a single lovelace card in fullscreen mode, however I am looking for something to make it dynamic. Imagine you have a dashboard with 4 different kinds of cards, maybe one Entities, one Webpage (e.g. to show Grafana), one camera and a alarm panel.
I would like to somehow double click on one card to blow it up full screen (sidebar can be visible or not) and then double click to blow down. And I want to be able to do it with any card on the board. Especially with the webpage cards this seems to be very usefull.
Is such a think possible? It was literally the first thing I tried to do …

Hi All
I have some Shelly Devices and I want to setup some automations. Setting up automations when I have a load of channel 1, channel 2 and so on entities is not very easy so I have given the channels a name on the shelly device webpage. Will these changes ever get reflected in home assistant? Is there a way of refreshing it manually?
I don’t really want to have to re-add all my shelly devices just because I want the names to update!
Thanks

Good evening,
I’m trying to tidy up my automations a bit by using templates, but i’ve hit a brick wall with this one. I’ve got some motion sensors to control the lights and depending on the time of day, they switch on different scenes. The time of day also controls how long the lights will stay on for after the motion sensor reports no motion. The different times of day are stored in an input_select list and are called “Day”, “Evening”, “Night” and “Movie”.
Before i started using templates i just had separate automations that were triggered by motion and had the input_select value as the condition, but this looked untidy and i wanted to combine them all into a single automation. I was able to use a template for the action part of the automation which selects the light scene based on the input_select value, but i can’t figure out how to get templating to work with the “for” option in the trigger section to control how long the lights stay on for after the motion sensor returns a false. The time that i’d like the lights to stay on for is stored in a input_number variable.
I found the following example on the github pull requests which added templating to the “for” option back in Jul 19 (Pull request 24912):
automation:
- alias: Use template in trigger's for option
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: sensor.a
to: some_state
for:
minutes: "{{ states('input_number.minutes')|int }}"
seconds: "{{ states('input_number.seconds')|int }}"
action:
Based on this i came up with the following trigger template:
id: '1650815020918'
alias: Living light auto off debug
description: ''
trigger:
- platform: template
value_template: '''{{ is_state(''input_boolean.living_light_request'', ''off'') }}'''
for:
minutes:
data_template: |-
{% if is_state('input_select.light_mode_flat','Day') %}
{{ states('input_number.motion_living_not_detected_day') | int }}
{% elif is_state('input_select.light_mode_flat','Evening') %}
{{ states('input_number.motion_living_not_detected_evening') | int }}
{% elif is_state('input_select.light_mode_flat','Night') %}
{{ states('input_number.motion_living_not_detected_night') | int }}
{% elif is_state('input_select.light_mode_flat','Movie') %}
{{ states('input_number.motion_living_not_detected_evening') | int }}
{% endif %}
condition: []
action:
- service: scene.turn_on
target:
entity_id: scene.living_all_lights_off
metadata: {}
mode: single
This obviously doesn’t work and i’m sure there’s a simple reason why, but i just can’t see it.
Any help to get to the bottom of this would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
David

I have Home Assistant Supervised. In order for it to be a supported install, I am required to run Network Manager. I have it installed and set up like here: Network Manager - Home Assistant
The one difference is that I have assigned a static IP address. So my /etc/network/interfaces file look like this:
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface enp0s3 inet static
address 192.168.xxx.x
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.xxx.x
dns-nameservers xxx.xx.x.xx, xxx.xx.x.xx
The problem is every time I reboot the network manger is clearing the /etc/resolv.conf file and leaving it empty. Then if i try to execute a sudo apt-get update, it cannot find any of the locations.

If I do this via the media player card, I don’t see where the event is logged. “Amy Winehouse Radio” is a favorite on my Sonos device, and I’ve seen suggestions that it’s trivial if it’s a Sonos favorite. It’s trivial from the card, but trying to wire this up to a smart button.

Hello,
I know for sure that the newer improved version of Nest Intergration is currently broken so I was following the “old school” method, however once I have accepted permission it tries to redirect back to my HA but I just then get a HA popup saying Error with no other details. Does anyone have any ideas or places I can look?
I can attach some screenshots later if needed??
I have accessed my HA via the Nabu Casa external domain.

Lets say I have a door.
I will be notified if the door is open for more than 10min. This was easy to configure.
Now my problem. When, after beeing open for more than 10min (i.e. the notification was sent), the door is closed I want a notification.
How could I configure that? How to specify this additional condition.

I am trying to add my Kwikset 620 deadbolt to my HA. I currently have about 5 zwave lights connected to my home assistant and the lock is about 30 feed from the nearest switch.
I am trying to add the lock, but z-wave JS cannot find it via add device. I’ve been pressing the z-wave connect button the lock per the directions.
Are there any suggestions/thoughts where to start?
Thanks
