Hello, I’m using the Home Assistant Cloud (Nabucasa) and the Alexa Integration. When I use the UI, everything works as expected and the selected Entities can be discovered by Alexa.
However, I want to configure this in the configuration.yaml
, since I need to add some custom names to devices which should be controllable through alexa.
The problem is, that nothing gets discovered by Alexa when I configure my entities in the yaml file compared to configuration through the UI.
Here’s an excerpt of the relevant part of my configuration file:
configuration.yaml:
cloud:
!include alexa_config.yaml
alexa_config.yaml:
alexa:
filter:
include_entities:
- switch.sonoff1
- switch.sonoff2
- switch.sonoff3
entity_config:
switch.sonoff1:
name: Stehlampe
description: Lampe am Sessel
display_categories: LIGHT
switch.sonoff2:
name: Tischlampe
description: Lampe auf Bücherregal
display_categories: LIGHT
switch.sonoff3:
name: Flurlicht
description: Licht im Flur
display_categories: LIGHT
