Support YAML Automation to Reload Specific Integrations

Hi everyone,

I’d like to propose a feature enhancement for Home Assistant: enabling YAML-based automations to reload specific integrations.

To make this practical, each integration should have a way to be uniquely identified—whether by a unique name, tags, or similar identifiers. This would allow users to create automations that target a specific integration for reloading when necessary, such as when an entity becomes unavailable due to the integration not running properly.

This feature would enhance system stability by automating recovery actions and providing users with more control over their environment.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback on this suggestion!

Best regards,
Ricardo

Do you mean action: homeassistant.reload_config_entry ?

I use this to reload some integrations, for example Speedtest:

actions:
  - data: {}
    target:
      entity_id: sensor.speedtest_ping
    action: homeassistant.reload_config_entry
