I have disabled several automations and they are now not visible in the GUI although they are still present in the automations.yaml file. I have spent several hours googling this but it seems most other solutions are regarding all the automations not visible or other unrelated issues. It seems like I am missing something basic to just make them visible again since the code is still present.
this is the workflow that causes them to be hidden. I would appreciate any help on where to look.
- create a new automation âNew Automation 81â
- click the three dots on the far right of the row in the Automations tab to open the menu
- Click âShow settingsâ
- Click the toggle button âEnabledâ to disable the automation. This also toggles the âVisibleâ toggle button to off as well.
- Click the âUpdateâ button.
- At this point, the Automation is no longer visible in the GUI from a browser or the mobile app. Iâm not sure if it still functions or not; I have not tried debugging whether they still run in this state. No amount of restarting home assistant or rebooting HAOS or clearing the browser cache seems to affect it at this point.
- (All) of the âdisabledâ automations are still present in the yaml file and the other automations in the yaml file are visible and functioning normally.
As I am fairly new to home assistant, I have now learned that this enable/disable button was not the one I needed to toggle, but instead the untitled toggle button on the row in the Automations tab. To be fair to myself though, I was out of town trying to disable some automations while away, and this toggle button does not seem to be present on the android app, which is how I ended up choosing the ?wrong? method.
