Use the secondary_info last_changed option of the entities card.

Tnx for the reply

how i implement this , for example this is the code right now:

entities:

  • entity: binary_sensor.door_window_sensor_158d0002b5312
  • entity: binary_sensor.motion_sensor_158d0002b93f8
    type: entities

- type: entities
  title: Entities card sample
  entities:
    - entity: binary_sensor.door_window_sensor_158d0002b5312
      name: Window
      secondary_info: last-changed
    - entity: binary_sensor.motion_sensor_158d0002b93f8
      name: Motion
      secondary_info: last-changed

Look at the indentation of my example.
YAML is a bitch!

Are these entity_id’s valid?
Please check in Dev Tools/states (< >)

Do as asked please.

Why TF do people come here and ask for help, and then not respond to what is asked?

Confusion with the Ui Card Editor.
In yaml mode (what i use) there’s a hyphen in front of the type.
In the UI Card editor it is not.
So in the card editor it should look like

type: entities
title: Entities card sample
entities:
  - entity: binary_sensor.door_window_sensor_158d0002b5312
    name: Window
    secondary_info: last-changed
  - entity: binary_sensor.motion_sensor_158d0002b93f8
    name: Motion
    secondary_info: last-changed

if i want the to see when the last action was in time (for example: 20:33)

u try to use this, but it not working:

type: entities
title: Entities card sample
entities:

  • entity: binary_sensor.door_window_sensor_158d0002b5312d
    name: Window
    secondary_info: last-changed
    format: datetime
  • entity: binary_sensor.motion_sensor_158d0002b93f81
    name: Motion
    secondary_info: last-changed
    format: datetime
13

Thats not possible, there is no format option for the secondary_info, it’s for the state value.

Hi

@VDRainer

i have question, i use the code according to your answers in 2 cards (sensor and device tracker, the code attached)

but if i reset the HA, the last change count only from the last reset, but if i check the data in the sensor i see different time:

After HA reset:

Sensor data:

The code:
entities:

  • entity: binary_sensor.door_window_sensor_158d0002b5312d
    name: Door Entry
    secondary_info: last-changed
  • entity: binary_sensor.motion_sensor_158d0002b93f81
    name: Living Room Motion
    secondary_info: last-changed
    show_header_toggle: false
    title: Entities card sample
    type: entities
15

This is normal

No clue with the data in the graph, but the graphs are always a little buggy.
