Not a fan of the new overview page.

Some times, things don’t need to change.

You don’t know HA very well do you? :smile:

The only thing about HA that never changes is that there’s always changes whether they’re needed or not.

Isn’t that the truth.

Sorry for my outburst.

It was a long day.

Why? Because it takes two buttons to get to Integrations?

You can add it to the sidebar as you can with any page.

I’ve done the same with all the buried development stuff that I use including the integrations page, automations, and now, unfortunately, the newly buried developers tools page.

put this in your configuration.yaml:

panel_custom:
  - name: Automations
    sidebar_title: Automations
    sidebar_icon: mdi:cog-transfer
    js_url: /api/hassio/app/entrypoint.js
    url_path: config/automation/dashboard
    embed_iframe: true
    require_admin: true
    config:
      ingress: core_configurator
  - name: Integrations
    sidebar_title: Integrations
    sidebar_icon: mdi:application-cog-outline
    js_url: /api/hassio/app/entrypoint.js
    url_path: config/integrations
    embed_iframe: true
    require_admin: true
    config:
      ingress: core_configurator
  - name: Developer Tools
    sidebar_title: Developer Tools
    sidebar_icon: mdi:hammer
    js_url: /api/hassio/app/entrypoint.js
    url_path: developer-tools/yaml
    embed_iframe: true
    require_admin: true
    config:
      ingress: core_configurator

I never used default dashboard from day 1. First thing i do is “take control” and “start with empty dashboard”. I want thing set up the way i want, not anyone else. To be honest, when i open HA i really don’t care if, say, there are currently any lights turned on or not, any covers closed… but as admin i want to see if all is ok with ha, server etc… so on my default dash i have HA info, proxmox info and similar.

But, regarding sidebar I found even better way than “panel_custom” : custom sidebar in HACS. Beside the fact that i can make developer tool at the bottom reappear i can colorize whole thing, make comments below the name, create new entries, shortcuts… This kind of customizatiom should be built-in HA.
(translation: developer tools is “Orodja za razvijalce”)

Can only make those guys default not an intergration panel.

@finity like you I have tons of projects lol some come some go like my Textnow which fluffing awesome but seems Textnow won’t approve usage of their api

Or this cool project which monitors smart outlets and enforces low electric usage in my home

And pretty much all the blueprints in my sig signature will be ported over to being an intergration with a panel I prefer it that way running python in backend so much better

It’s not only the built-in HA dashboards that can be set as default. It’s any dashboard whether it’s system or user created. The integration panel isn’t a dashboard tho so you can’t select it.

And I have no idea how to make it a dashboard.

I just put a direct link to it in my side-bar using “panel_custom”.

i didnt catch that gotcha (panel ≠ dashboard).

Ill submit a feature request for it
