As a HA newbie I must be doing something wrong but I struggle to find what I need when doing a search in the docs area. The latest example is for input_datetime. A search in the docs area doesn’t come up with anything - there is input_boolean and input_select but not input_datetime.
I can find references to it in the general forum and people even mention the documentation for it but I’m damned if I can find it. Is the docs search flaky or am I using it incorrectly?
Thanks in advance
I get zero results when searching for “input_boolean” or “input_select”. But I do get results when searching for “input boolean” or “input datetime”…
Use Google to search for " home assistant input_datetime".
I have a bookmark saved (and a context search addon for firefox) for a google search for “home assistant…” to which I just add what I’m looking for.
That still didn’t work for me within docs.
That worked! Thanks.
It’s a shame the internal search doesn’t seem to work as well as google but at least I know how to find things now.
I notice that the documentation for input_datetime is within the integrations area and searching in there comes up with it as soon as you type “input”.
I hadn’t thought of it as an integration as such, but I’m still getting used to the HA terminology.
