this is my switches.yaml file in /includes folder, do i need to reference this in my ui-lovelace?

- platform: template
  switches:
    # Music activity Upstairs
    receiver_upstairs:
      friendly_name: "Receiver Upstairs"
      value_template: "{{ is_state_attr('remote.living_room', 'current_activity', 'Listen to Music') }}"
      turn_on:
        service: remote.turn_on
        data:
          entity_id: remote.living_room
          activity: '35877246'
      turn_off:
        service: remote.turn_on
        data:
          entity_id: remote.living_room
          activity: 'PowerOff'
    # Music activity
    receiver_downstairs:
      friendly_name: "Receiver Downstairs"
      value_template: "{{ is_state_attr('remote.downstairs', 'current_activity', 'Listen to Music') }}"
      turn_on:
        service: remote.turn_on
        data:
          entity_id: remote.downstairs
          activity: '35561135'
      turn_off:
        service: remote.turn_on
        data:
          entity_id: remote.downstairs
          activity: 'PowerOff'

Fixed it by adding the activity in the configuration.yaml file… however, how can i make it a toggle switch by turning it on with just a press?

This doesn’t seem to work

    cards:
      - type: entities
        title: Receiver's
        tap_action: toggle
        entities:
          - remote.living_room

change remote.living_room to switch.receiver_upstairs and it will turn on the activity.

Take a look at what I do:

do you have your config on github?

I do not. I’m going to be making major changes in the upcoming months and one thing on my list is to get my configuration up on GitHub with personal information removed. When that happens, I’ll add it to my profile.
