When using the " deviceID: ā{{ deviceID }}ā " approach for calling a popup within a script is there any way to determine what the actual deviceID value is thatās being passed? I am unable to get this to work and was curious to see what is actually being passed in that variable.
This is the setup in my scripts.yaml file. The close_popup executes but the popup service never does.
set_alarm_time_popup:
alias: Set Alarm Time Popup
sequence:
- service: browser_mod.close_popup
- service: browser_mod.popup
data_template:
deviceID: "{{ deviceID }}"
title: Alarm Set
style:
. . . . . . .
card:
. . . . . . .I suppose you could try
- service: system_log.write
data_template:
message: "{{ deviceID }}"
and then check your logs.
Hi,
Today I wanted to use your custom_browser_mod, so I installed it and enabled it in configuration.yaml.
Then I created two āinput_numbersā:
temperature_threshold_open_ost:
name: Solltemperatur Ćffnen Ost
min: 20
max: 23
step: 1
icon: mdi:alarm
mode: box
icon: mdi:thermometer
unit_of_measurement: 'Ā°C'
temperature_threshold_close_ost:
name: Solltemperatur SchlieĆen Ost
min: 20
max: 23
step: 1
icon: mdi:alarm
mode: box
icon: mdi:thermometer
unit_of_measurement: 'Ā°C'
After that I prepared the script:
popup_ost:
sequence:
- service: browser_mod.popup
data_template:
deviceID: "{{ deviceID }}"
title: Temperatur-Einstellungen
card:
type: entities
entities:
- input_number.temperature_threshold_close_ost
- input_number.temperature_threshold_open_ost
Then I added an entity_button:
type: entity-button
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: script.popup_ost
service_data:
deviceID:
- this
hold_action:
action: more-info
show_icon: true
show_name: true
entity: sensor.arbeitszimmer_dach_motion_sensor_temperature
But nothing happens, when I click on the Symbolā¦
Mhhh,
If I edit the Entity Button (via Lovelace āConfigure UIā) then I can see that the Service-Part is getting removedā¦
type: entity-button
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: ''
hold_action:
action: more-info
show_icon: true
show_name: true
entity: sensor.arbeitszimmer_dach_motion_sensor_temperature
I believe thatās a known bug. What version of Home Assistant are you running?
0.99.3

I am continuously getting this error when trying to use a popup. It worked 1 time. I tried to close it and since then, thisā¦
2019-10-09 13:30:53 ERROR (MainThread) [frontend.js.latest.201909191] webpack:////card-tools/popup.js?:28:14 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'close' of undefined
I cleared cache and even tried a 2nd browser. Same thing.
Any ideas?
Do you by chance have an active cast to a google hub or so?
So I just went to the media_player entity and played a TTS from the states page and as soon as I played the TTS, went back to the services page and commanded a pop up, it worked. Butā¦ thats odd because I wasnāt calling the media player in the first place. Odd.
Make the browser on your workstation switch to a specific tab when the kitchen light is on after midnight
Does anyone have a config example for this above?
I was pretty much just pulling words out of a sack and putting them together when writing that partā¦ but maybe something likeā¦
automation:
- alias: No midnight snacks
trigger:
platform: state
entitiy_id: light.kitchen
state: "on"
condition:
condition: time
before: "06:00:00"
action:
service: browser_mod.navigate
data:
deviceID:
- kitchen_screen
navigation_path: /lovelace/weight_tracking/
Hmmm, that will take my browsers current tab (non-HA) and automatically change the view over to the HA one? I just want to make sure I am reading this correctly.
EDIT: It changes the view/path of that tab, but the browser will not just switch to that tab. Just tested this. Would be pretty neat if you could. This way if you were working in another tab and an event you were interested in took place, the tab would switch to the HA one and youād get instant view of what you wanted to see.
I tried with this:
- type: entity-button
name: Turn Off Lights
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: system_log.write
service_data:
message: "{{ deviceID }}"
entity: light.lampara_escritorio
But is not workingā¦
No. That only works from the backend where data_template is supported. So youād have to put that service call in a script and trigger that from the frontend, using deviceID: this.

Unfortunately I for some reason canāt get this to work for pulling up the calling deviceID. The script starts to run the close_popup and the window closes but the popup for the new window never runs. If I were to add the data_template and deviceID: ā{{ deviceID }}ā to the close_popup it also doesnāt run. Any idea what I might be able to try to get this to work? Soon as that variable from ā-thisā to deviceID ā{{ deviceID }}ā is included it doesnāt seem to work.
scripts.yaml
set_alarm_time_popup:
alias: Set Alarm Time Popup
sequence:
- service: browser_mod.close_popup
- service: browser_mod.popup
data_template:
deviceID: "{{ deviceID }}"
title: Alarm Set
style:
. . . . . . .
card:
. . . . . . .
lovelace.yaml
- type: entity-button
entity: script.set_alarm_time_popup
name: Change Alarm Time
icon: mdi:sleep
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: script.set_alarm_time_popup
service_data:
deviceID:
- thisMaybe start with something simpler, like a call to browser_mod.debug just to get the deviceID part to work first.
Also make sure you are actually using the latest version of browser_mod and that youāve cleared your browser cache after updating.
I believe thatās a known bug. What version of Home Assistant are you running?
Hi @thomasloven, tested now also with 0.100, still the same behaviour.

Is there a way to ignore or disable devices? For example, I have HA installed on my kidsā iPhones for presence detection and so they they can get in the house when no one else is home. I donāt really need any of the browser_mod functions for their phones.
