How do I know if an automation has been performed or not?

Hello everyone,

Imagine that you were out of your home for a while and want to know if an automation, eg. a noise sensor activates the automation if the noise is constant for more than 5s. I have no problem doing this automation, but I have no idea how to show on my dashboard if my automation was ever performed and for how many times.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Add a counter helper and in your automation increase the counter at the end.
That is probably the easiest way.
The history of the counter will also show you the times it ran.

Or a logbook card with a filter for the automation you are interested in.

Good ideia thank you very much.
