Please don’t post pictures of text. Post the actual text correctly formatted for the forum.

Are you perhaps looking for the template cover?

As far as I am aware the endstop cover is only an esphome component, not a cover platform in Home Assistant.

i didnt know there was 2 covers ( esphome and homeassistant ) i think it was al 1 familly

If you made the endstop cover in ESPHome it should show up in Home Assistant as a cover entity. Why are you trying to duplicate it?

There’s no need. Just put this in an entities card:

cover.endstop_cover

Create a template sensor in ESPhome that copies your cover’s state.

Put that in your dashboard.
