Rest version sensor without state

Configuration
1

using the https://www.home-assistant.io/version.json resource for version in a rest sensor like this:

  - platform: rest
    name: Hassio version
    resource: https://www.home-assistant.io/version.json
    value_template: >
      {{ value_json.value }}
    json_attributes:
      - current_version
      - release_date
      - release_notes
      - release_notes_path
      - release_title
      - release_description
      - patch_version_notes
      - root_url
      - semantic_version

shows all in attributes, but creates no state for the sensor…

How could I set the ‘current_version’ as sensor, and still use the value_template to create the json_attributes?

thanks for having a look

should be

    value_template: >
      {{ value_json.current_version}}

Thanks , thought about that of course :wink: but would that allow for all the attributes as I have them now?

edit

yes it does!

feared the attributes were taken from the root of the sensor, apparently not. so much the better…

thanks, marked solved.

next up, the Beta sensor :wink:

  - platform: rest
    name: Ha current beta version
    resource: https://s3.amazonaws.com/hassio-version/beta.json
    value_template: >
      {{ value_json.homeassistant.default }}
    scan_interval: 86400
    json_attributes:
      - channel
      - supervisor
      - hassos
      - hassos-cli
      - dns

would probably give me the attributes, but I dont need the full set for hassos, only the rpi3:

{
  "channel": "beta",
  "supervisor": "185",
  "homeassistant": {
    "default": "0.98.3",
    "qemux86": "0.98.3",
    "qemux86-64": "0.98.3",
    "qemuarm": "0.98.3",
    "qemuarm-64": "0.98.3",
    "intel-nuc": "0.98.3",
    "raspberrypi": "0.98.3",
    "raspberrypi2": "0.98.3",
    "raspberrypi3": "0.98.3",
    "raspberrypi3-64": "0.98.3",
    "raspberrypi4": "0.98.3",
    "raspberrypi4-64": "0.98.3",
    "tinker": "0.98.3",
    "odroid-c2": "0.98.3",
    "odroid-xu": "0.98.3",
    "orangepi-prime": "0.98.3"
  },
  "hassos": {
    "ova": "2.12",
    "rpi": "2.12",
    "rpi0-w": "2.12",
    "rpi2": "2.12",
    "rpi3": "2.12",
    "rpi3-64": "2.12",
    "rpi4": "3.4",
    "rpi4-64": "3.4",
    "tinker": "2.12",
    "odroid-c2": "2.12",
    "odroid-xu4": "2.12",
    "opi-prime": "2.12",
    "intel-nuc": "2.12"
  },
  "hassos-cli": "14",
  "dns": "1"
}

how can I set that in the attributes?
