Add possibility to assing an area to a light group

Feature Requests
1

There is -as far as I have been able to find- no way to assign a lightgroup to an area. In my case this means I cannot control these groups as part of a room when controlling devices with Google Assistant. As light groups are core functionality I would think this was not overlooked but there seems to be no way to assign an area.
Please add the possibility to assign an area to a light group

Kind regards,

I am also looking for this functionality, so if it does already exist, could someone please explain how. Otherwise, I add my +1 for this function to be added.

Another +1 from me. I’ve been searching and searching but there really does not seem to be an option for this.

The light can be assigned to a room inside the Google Home app. This is a valid workaround. Just to make sure you are aware. I totally agree it should ideally be possible to assign an area.

I really need this too :smile:

True but I would like to be able to manage this from one location (HA).

+1 for this. I have a light group defined:

light:
  - platform: group
    name: Kitchen Pendants
    entities:
      - light.color_temperature_light_kitchen_pendant1
      - light.color_temperature_light_kitchen_pendant2
      - light.color_temperature_light_kitchen_pendant3

But can’t add that group to an area.
