Split automations - automation entities now gone

Configuration
1

I decided to split my automations.yaml file for manageability. I included this in configuration.yaml

automation: !include_dir_merge_list automation

I then created a folder automation and a file.yaml for each automation removing the -id line. All of the automations are found and are working…but

  1. there are no longer automation entities
  2. the automations are not shown in configuration/automations

I was using lovelace to activate or deactivate automations and I need that function, but without entities, how do I control whether an automation should be active or not?

2

Add the id back. This is required to index the automation in the UI.

Or just list all your automations in an entities card in a Lovelace view.

thanks…that will help with one problem…the other is more difficult and deserves a separate issue.

4
