How to delete Dashboard, created from UI

I cant delete dashboard, created from UI, and cant edit it. The message I get, when I click on the dashboard is “Dashboards defined in YAML cannot be edited from the UI. Change them in configuration.yaml.”
I check configuration.yaml file, but didn`t see the dashboard created under lovelace row.
Any ideas?

Look in lovelace.yaml not configuration.yaml

Then create an issue to get the error message changed.

I have only ui-lovelace.yaml , which I created with my code in it, don’t see the new dashboards, and what do you mean, by create an issue? Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Hi, I suffer same problem as nikpachkov. Dashboard says UI controlled, when klicking it says.

“Dashboards defined in YAML cannot be edited from the UI. Change them in configuration.yaml.”

I dont have any ui-lovelace.yaml file not either configured

lovelace:
mode: yaml

Can someone please give advice how to get rid of this Dashboard?

I removed

/config/.storage/lovelace_dashboards

file and restarted HA. After reboot Dashboard is removed and possible to create new that have delete possibility.

Yep, this worked for me too.

I just edited out the dashboard I wanted gone from the /config/.storage/lovelace_dashboards JSON file. Then restarted. That did it for me.

This is the first result that pops up in google so I thought I’d share how it is supposed to be done. Came across accidentally, so not the best UI design on this one.

Go to “Configuration” → “Lovelace dashboards”

You simply have to click on the “Admin only” or “Show in sidebar” portion of the row. There you can edit or delete the entire dashboard (except the standard one).

Yeah, the JSON file does not show the dashboard I want to delete, and there’s nothing in the UI do this either.

I am stumped.

Hi, I’m also trying to delete them and I don’t find the way.
When installed, for some reason I got two dashboards called ‘UI Lovelance minimalist’… One that I modified to show what I want, and the other one seems like an empty demo saying ‘this could be your…’

  • From Dashboards: Only option is to make it default. No possible to delete
  • I dont have a .Storage folder under Config
  • On my configuration.yaml there is no reference to dashboards (there is not much in there)
  • At Config/UI Lovelance minimalist, I deleted all the files from 'Dashboard/adaptative-dash/*, which seems to be the files for this second dashboard. After restarting HA, the files are back there.

How do I delete it?
And how I create a new one from scratch?

thanks

Hi! I had the same problem. Take a look at your configuration of the Minimalist Integration and uncheck the “Enable adaptive Dashboard with popup splitview” box. The second Dashboard should be gone then.

Thankjs @Jazor , I just did that and it worked. thanks!

Thanks, I was searching for that a lot :smiley:

Thank you! It took an entire year to find your solution

How did you do this? I don’t seem to have the /config/.storage/lovelace_dashboards JSON file
