Yes, see my answer above.
Alright, I’ve added the code into the configuration.yaml. Thank you.
But it still doesn’t show on the dashboard.
I’ve added the following into a manual card. As said above.
color_thresholds:
- color: '#e45e65'
value: 40
- color: '#e0b400'
value: 30
- color: '#0da035'
value: 20
- color: '#039BE5'
value: -1
color_thresholds_transition: hard
entities:
- entity: binary_sensor.ping
group: false
height: 300
hour24: true
line_width: 4
name: Ping
points_per_hour: 10
show:
extrema: true
average: true
fill: fade
icon: true
labels: false
name: true
state: true
type: custom:mini-graph-card
This is not the name of your sensor (in the card):
entities:
- entity: binary_sensor.ping
Your sensors will be called:
color_thresholds:
- color: '#e45e65'
value: 40
- color: '#e0b400'
value: 30
- color: '#0da035'
value: 20
- color: '#039BE5'
value: -1
color_thresholds_transition: hard
entities:
- entity: sensor.wan_ping
- entity: sensor.lan_ping
group: false
height: 300
hour24: true
line_width: 4
name: Ping
points_per_hour: 10
show:
extrema: true
average: true
fill: fade
icon: true
labels: false
name: true
state: true
type: custom:mini-graph-card
Also your second template sensor seems to be using the wrong binary sensor. Should be:
- sensor:
- name: "LAN Ping"
icon: "mdi:speedometer"
unit_of_measurement: "ms"
state: "{{ state_attr('binary_sensor.default_gateway_ping', 'round_trip_time_avg')|round(2) }}"
Hi Tom,
sorry for posting off tpoic.
Can’t figure out whats wrong with my code …
- sensor:
- name: "LAN Ping"
icon: "mdi:speedometer"
unit_of_measurement: "ms"
state: "{{ state_attr('binary_sensor.router_ping', 'round_trip_time_avg')|round(2) }}"
color_thresholds:
- color: '#e45e65'
value: 40
- color: '#e0b400'
value: 30
- color: '#0da035'
value: 20
- color: '#039BE5'
value: -1
color_thresholds_transition: hard
entities:
- entity: sensor.wan_ping
- entity: sensor.lan_ping
group: false
height: 300
hour24: true
line_width: 4
name: Ping
points_per_hour: 10
show:
extrema: true
average: true
fill: fade
icon: true
labels: false
name: true
state: true
type: custom:mini-graph-card
getting the error:
Invalid config for [template]: [color_thresholds] is an invalid option for [template]. Check: template->color_thresholds.
All of this belongs in the card config, not the sensor config.
color_thresholds:
- color: '#e45e65'
value: 40
- color: '#e0b400'
value: 30
- color: '#0da035'
value: 20
- color: '#039BE5'

entities:

It all stored in configuration.yaml at the very bottom…
Which is wrong. As I said, this bit goes in a Lovelace card:
color_thresholds:
- color: '#e45e65'
value: 40
- color: '#e0b400'
value: 30
- color: '#0da035'
value: 20
- color: '#039BE5'
value: -1
color_thresholds_transition: hard
entities:
- entity: sensor.wan_ping
- entity: sensor.lan_ping
group: false
height: 300
hour24: true
line_width: 4
name: Ping
points_per_hour: 10
show:
extrema: true
average: true
fill: fade
icon: true
labels: false
name: true
state: true
type: custom:mini-graph-card
Remove it from your ping sensor config.
thanks for information.
i opened the “Raw-Configurationeditor” and paste it at the very bottom, restartet it but still the same style
The ping sensor goes in your sensor.yaml file.
The card config goes in a Lovelace card, not the raw view. And not indented that far either.
hey @tom_l
with Lovelacecard you mean the card config itself?
Visual editor is not supported for this configuration:
- Key ‘color_thresholds’ is not expected or not supported by the visual editor.
- Key ‘color_thresholds_transition’ is not expected or not supported by the visual editor.
- Key ‘entities’ is not expected or not supported by the visual editor.
You can still edit your config in YAML.
Do i need something like lovelace.yaml?
No. That is correct. The mini graph card does not have a gui editor. You can edit it in that card YAML window (if you ever need to).
thanks for the answeres :slight_smile 
i think i need to learn more about configuration of cards etc… i stick to the standard view without color tresholds…
edit: was missing the mini-graph-card
@aruffell
Any chance you can send me over your mini-graph template. Im trying to replicate here and for the life of me, I cant get it changed away from the single line graph.
These are my template sensors:
- sensor:
- name: "WAN Ping"
icon: "mdi:speedometer"
unit_of_measurement: "ms"
state: "{{ state_attr('binary_sensor.google_dns_ping', 'round_trip_time_avg')|float(0)|round(2)|default(0) }}"
- sensor:
- name: "LAN Ping"
icon: "mdi:speedometer"
unit_of_measurement: "ms"
state: "{{ state_attr('binary_sensor.router_ping', 'round_trip_time_avg')|float(0)|round(2)|default(0) }}"
And these are the mini-graphs:
type: custom:mini-graph-card
name: LAN Ping
entities:
- entity: sensor.lan_ping
group: false
height: 320
hour24: true
line_width: 4
points_per_hour: 12
show:
extrema: true
average: true
fill: fade
icon: true
labels: false
name: true
state: true
color_thresholds:
- color: '#e45e65'
value: 40
- color: '#e0b400'
value: 30
- color: '#0da035'
value: 20
- color: '#039BE5'
value: -1
color_thresholds_transition: hard
and
type: custom:mini-graph-card
name: WAN Ping
entities:
- entity: sensor.wan_ping
group: false
height: 320
hour24: true
line_width: 4
points_per_hour: 12
show:
extrema: true
average: true
fill: fade
icon: true
labels: false
name: true
state: true
color_thresholds:
- color: '#e45e65'
value: 40
- color: '#e0b400'
value: 30
- color: '#0da035'
value: 20
- color: '#039BE5'
value: -1
color_thresholds_transition: hard
Is this what you were asking for?

That’s exactly it, thank you very much @aruffell .
I was wracking my brain as the colouring wasn’t working, I couldn’t see the error. Just c&p yours there and boom job done. Appreciate it.

Just to add that as of now, mini-graph-card supports attributes so there is no longer need to create a template sensor to extract the values from the binary sensor - GitHub - kalkih/mini-graph-card: Minimalistic graph card for Home Assistant Lovelace UI

@ariel I experimented with removing the Template Sensors and it seemed to prevent the ping card from updating at all.
