Help needed with the new "event entity"

Hi All,

I need some help with the new “event entity” as announced here : 2023.8: Translated services, events, and wildcards! - Home Assistant (home-assistant.io)

My goal is to use this for the “doubleclick” even of a Fibaro FGD212 (double dimmer) however ,I can not quite get it what I need to do to to make those events visible like in the screenshot of the article (and then use them in automations afterwards)
Can someone explain ?

Perhaps you missed the last statement of the link you posted:

Besides Matter, the event entity is also supported by HomeKit Devices, MQTT, and Philips Hue. We expect to see more integrations supporting this new entity type soon.

I added the bold to the text you should pay attention to. The device you mentioned is a Z-Wave device, and the Z-Wave integration doesn’t yet support this entity type.

You usually don’t need an event entity to automate this type of device.

Ah thanks, I was a bit to quick I think

Does anyone know if the event entity is also supported with esphome or not yet? I want to automate a push button that is made with esphome framework. Reading the docs is esphome, there is only this info: Native API Component — ESPHome

When you create a button in esphome it will show up as an entity in home assistant. Automate on that.
