Picture-elemnts: how to open parent device on double_tap action

Configuration Frontend
1

Hi,

I use dashboards with picture-elements, like:

2023-11-17_17-47-07

As you can see, there are some state-labels that display temperature.
This is done with

          - type: state-label
            title: Keukenraam
            entity: sensor.my_n00_p03_temperature_t03_koelkast_temperature
            double_tap_action:
              action: more-info
            style:
              transform: scale(0.8,0.8) translate(-50%, -50%)
              top: 63%
              left: 90%
              color: black
              border: 1px solid black
              border-radius: 20px
              padding: 0px
              background-color: white

Now what I want: on double_tap_action

            double_tap_action:
              action: more-info

I want to see the device info, not the entity info.
This is especially interesting when you have a device with multiple sensors, i.e. the most temperature sensors: temp/humidity
I don’t want to clutter my dashboard with all those details, but it can be interesting that you can see them on double tap.

Anybody?

kind regards,

Picture-element, Glance card , whatever - it does not matter.
The correct question is - “is there a card which displays a Device, not entities?”
Answer is - “there is no such a standard card”.
In HA Settings → Devices you can open a “Device info” popup which contains a device-level info and associated entities. But I do not know a way to call this pop for a particular device

Indeed, I was referring to that “card”.

Then I would suggest to rename the thread to smth like “How to call a standard HA device info window - or how to mimic it”

Old thread, but for those looking for this as well:

tap_action:
  action: navigate
  navigation_path: /config/devices/device/<device_id>

This works for me

Devices can be displayed using an auto-entities card using type:custom:template-entity-rows to add the devices. Presuming you have a device list with the device info like id, name area and model, this is the skeleton for the template in the auto entities card:

        {%- set ns=namespace(rows=[]) -%}
        {%- for info in devices -%}
          {%- set sec_info = 'Area:'~info.area~', Mdl:'~info.model  -%}
            {%- set entry = {
              'type': 'custom:template-entity-row',
              'name': info.integration~': '~info.name,
              'state': <your state>,
              'secondary': sec_info,
               'tap_action': {
                  'action': 'navigate',
                  'navigation_path': '/config/devices/device/'~info.id },
              } -%}
            {%- set ns.rows= ns.rows + [entry] -%}
        {%- endfor -%}  
        {{ ns.rows }}
