Seerr Request Card — search & request movies/TV from Overseerr right on your dashboard

Hey folks!

I built a custom card that lets you search for movies and TV shows, and request them through the Seerr integration, without leaving your dashboard. Type a title, get a list of matches with type/year and availability status, tap Request, done.

Features

  • Live search against your Seerr/Overseerr instance as you type
  • One-tap request
  • Items already available, pending, or processing are shown as such instead of a clickable button

Requirements

  • The built-in Seerr integration, set up and configured (Settings → Devices & Services → Add Integration → Seerr)
  • Home Assistant 2026.8 or newer

Installation

It’s not in the default HACS store yet (submission is open and pending review), so for now add it as a custom repository:

  1. HACS → ⋮ → Custom repositories
  2. Repository: https://github.com/willmakenoise/ha_seerr_card, category Dashboard
  3. Search for “seerr” and install it.

Known limitations

  • No poster/thumbnail images and no release year for movies — both come from a gap in the underlying python_overseerr client library, not the card. I’ve submitted fixes upstream for this; they’re not merged/released yet, so results show a generic icon for now.

Feedback, bug reports, and feature requests welcome — open an issue on the repo. If you hit anything odd, a screenshot + your HA and Seerr versions helps a lot.
