Open multiple MyQ Devices with a single button

Configuration
1

I have three MyQ devices defined in HA. I have an entities card that allows me to open/close each door separately but I’d like to have a single button to open/close them all at the same time. I added the following group in the groups.YAML:

all_doors:
name: Doors
entities:
- cover.gate
- cover.house_hole
- cover.detached_garage_2

However when I now define a button or entity card using this defined group as a Toggle action it doesn’t seem to trigger. Any ideas?

You could set up a script with the toggle operation for each door in sequence.
Then call the script as the button tap-action.

Thanks for the advice. I ended up creating an entity with a “call service” action, then defined the action as “cover_toggle”, then added each of the cover.xxx entities. Works great.

That’ll work too. One of the things I like about HA is that there are a variety of ways to solve problems so you can choose the one that is most understandable for you.
