Hi,
I have a bunch of automations that are defined with both ID and alias as per below.
- id: calculate_coronavirus_delta_today alias: "Calculate Change in Coronavirus Cases Today"My assumption was that ID would give it the entity name and alias would give it the friendly name… But it appears it’s turning the alias into the entity name, which makes me wonder what the purpose of the ID is… Does anyone know?
If it serves no purpose, is there a way to define the exact entity ID you want to use for your automation and separately give it a friendly name (for example what’s shown in the logbook)?
