I just created a similar automation but for some reason it opened up in a web browser instead of the native HA app… any ideas why?
EDIT: resolve this issue by changing the clickAction URL to: clickAction: /todo/bunnings-list (where ‘bunnings-list’ is the name of my list) and not having a url: at all.
EDIT 2: Actually, the only reason it is pulling up the correect list is because thats the first one I have alphabetically… I can’t figure out how to get the correct one to open
EDIT again… sorted:

Been looking for new HA projects to add. Some useful ideas here.
Not really into the standard light and sensor detections (my abode security ties into HA neatly and tells me what I want to know, and I dont care about changing hues or anything like that.)
But I’ve built a few things.
Took a used Juicebox 48 (cheap on ebay as the company went out of business) put in an OpenEVSE board, and now control it va mqtt. I have refoss ct_clamp monitors in my main entrance so that I know a great deal about my solar production and home electricity use.
When I plug in the car, it will wait for HA to calculate total solar output, deduct all home use, and then send the info to the board telling it how much surplus charge it can send to the car. Result - my solar does 95% of my car charging - for free. I can override when needed. I have a dash in HA that constantly updates this with meters showing me house use, solar production, overage and actual charging data.
My ecobee ties into HA so the HVAC is all controlled by HA, but our rear “Arizona” room which is now glassed in, has its own minisplit. I built an IR blaster using an esp8266 chip and an IR LED to talk to the minisplit and control it via HA (was controlled by a remote before). We don’t really need it, but handy if we leave to make sure we turned it off, etc.
I like the idea of sprinkler control via HA and will start doing that in the next few months.
I’m waiting for a smart nightlight that should arrive tomorrow, which I can flash via Esphome, so that our bathroom nightlight will turn on bright at dusk, stay on till 9pm, then drop to a low level for the rest of the time, with a built in motion sensor that will increase light level when somone enters. I just want light in that back corridor before bedtime, right now I leave the bath light on which wastes electricity.
If that works well, I might use it with other night lights.
I think I’ll build a front porch nightlight which will turn on to a high level when I or my partner return, but is not controlled by motion detection but geofencing instead. Otherwise its turning on and off too often. Trying to find a way to have good light to find our keys and put them in. (No, not ready for BT keys and locks quite yet).
At the ‘makerspace’ I volunteer at I’ve building out a HA network that senses when power tools are turned on and off, and it opens blast gates and turns on dust controllers accordingly. I use esp8266 chips and relays and servos to drive everything. Works outstandingly well.
