Logbook.log and lovelace logbook card

Configuration Frontend
1

Hello,
I am having a problem with the logbook.log service and the lovelace ‘logbook’ card.
When we add a log via the service, it appears in the general log accessible from the vertical bar but not in lovelace. We only see the changes of state. How to make also appear what one adds by the service logbook.log?

Thank you

The logbook card only monitors entities. There is no method to add custom log messages.

I think this has the same issue:

Thank you. What is surprising is that by adding a log with logbook.log, we can specify an entity … And in the logbook, when I choose the entity in question, I have the log that I have added by the service …

It looks like this was working until 2021.8, at which point the behaviour changed/broke.

There’s an open issue for it: logbook card show no automation trigger after update · Issue #9732 · home-assistant/frontend (github.com)

How does the logbook work ?

I do get only my location data show up in there, but i did not set this up in any way.

When i check the yaml only logbook: is added.

If i add my selected entities they won’t show up…

logbook:
  include:
    entities:
      - sensor.room1
      - sensor.room2
    domains:
      - alarm_control_panel
      - light
