Hello @Se7enair ! How did you manage to add cameras on your setup?

Hi
I am trying to make a sensor for my udm_unifios I have the sensor template in place also changed the secret file to match my UDM and testet that the user and password I am using is working, but still I am not able to get the sensor working keep saying unknown, did you do anything on UDM to make this work??

Hello,

I’m looking to get a count of open doors like what was done for the lights in the Sidebar.
How can I do it?

I’ve added “append” so you can add your door list there

Nope, try curl command in terminal first and make note of any errors

No, away is wrong and you need trigger.entity_id for each person

https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/scripts/#choose-a-group-of-actions

It just means “else” and it’s optional

Everything up-to-date?

Are you going to share your secrets.yaml? It’s done manually

type: picture-entity is its own card and is not a valid for type: entities. You can however use the “internal” name type: custom:hui-picture-entity-card [source] (or hui-element)

I’d skip entities altogether and if you need other cards group them in a vertical-stack

I did change all instances of your “not_home” to “away” so it should work, right?

You have trigger identity for 2 people. I just made it 4. Does that not work?

That part is correct but the action you’ve posted is “if person.paul changes state update timestamp of paul, juliette and julien”

I saw that some guys here were using the thermostat-popup-card by DBuit.
There are some issues with it and because the repo is not well maintained I added two pull request to the original repository.

Additionally I adjusted some styles. If you want your thermostat popup to look like the screenshot below, feel free to use the URL of my fork when installing via HACS:

This now seems right but only the paul person button gets the time set correctly. All others get a “NaNd”

- id: '8423590985012'
  alias: Person Home
  initial_state: true
  trigger:
    - platform: state
      entity_id:
        - person.paul_boutin
        - person.nathalie_boutin
        - person.juliette_boutin
        - person.julien_boutin
      from:
        - home
        - not_home
      to:
        - home
        - not_home
  action:
    - choose:
      - conditions: >
          {{ trigger.entity_id == 'person.paul_boutin' }}
        sequence:
        - service: mqtt.publish
          data:
            topic: homeassistant/persistence/paul_boutin
            payload_template: >
              {{ now() }}
            retain: true
      - conditions: >
          {{ trigger.entity_id == 'person.juliette_boutin' }}
        sequence:
        - service: mqtt.publish
          data:
            topic: homeassistant/persistence/juliette_boutin
            payload_template: >
              {{ now() }}
            retain: true
      - conditions: >
          {{ trigger.entity_id == 'person.julien_boutin' }}
        sequence:
        - service: mqtt.publish
          data:
            topic: homeassistant/persistence/julien_boutin
            payload_template: >
              {{ now() }}
            retain: true
      default:
        - service: mqtt.publish
          data:
            topic: homeassistant/persistence/nathalie_boutin
            payload_template: >
              {{ now() }}
            retain: true

Yes, everything is up-to-date.

Edit: Solved my problem, it reinstalled the popup-light-card, now it works.

I don’t see anything wrong. I think you have to wait for a state change (or force a state change in dev-tools) for the mqtt sensors to populate.

I would also indent the - service: mqtt.publish block but that may not matter.

Yes, it started working after a while, thanks.

@Mattias_Persson Any change you can share that handwave icon with green lines? I know i see it in your dashboard but can’t find it anywhere. :slight_smile:

Thx in advance!
