FAQ - Do you have any other developers blueprint sensors?
Yes, I’ve created sensors for two blueprints while testing this automation.
If you’d like to track the version of a specific blueprint, you can either create your own sensor or ask the blueprint’s developer to provide one.
If you’re a blueprint developer and would like to share your sensors, feel free to post them here, I’ll link them in this FAQ.
Please note: I don’t plan to develop sensors for every blueprint, so I kindly ask that you don’t request them from me directly.

Additional Sensors Provided by Other Blueprint Authors
These additional sensors were not developed by me and have not been tested by me. If you experience any issues with them, please contact the developer of the blueprint you are using.
