Hi everybody,
As the title suggests, I’m looking for a (simple) way to filter my log to show only unavailable devices.
What I’m trying to do, is to show on my homescreen date and time when one of the devices went unavailable (even if it’s not any more) in the last 24hrs, just to be able to quickly see if there are possible issues with the network.
Can this be done? Preferably without any HACS elements or custom mods, but if there’s no other way…
Thanks!
So, since I haven’t found a way to filter log, I did the second best thing - I’ve created a workaround.
Every time one of the devices goes to unavailable (for 30s) an automation is triggered that puts that device’s name and current timestamp as a new item on a dedicated to-do list.
And every night at midnight same automation goes through that to-do list, marks all items as completed and deletes them.
In such a way I can always know how many devices were misbehaving on a specific date, and during the day I can check the list of the exact devices.
Oh, and how to clear whole the to-do list I found in this post here.
Maybe it will help someone with the same needs.
