Switch confirmation dialog (lovelace card)

Hi guys!

I have managed to use confirmation dialog for a button in lovelace, like this

type: button
tap_action:
  action: toggle
  confirmation:
    text: Are you sure you want to do it?
entity: switch.sonoff_computer_humidity

Now, I want to know how to add a confimation dialog for a swtich too, can someone please help me with this? I have this card

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: switch.sonoff_computer_humidity

Thank you in advance!

Same question here — I have a few power switches I’d like to require confirmation on. Workarounds are just a little annoying.

This thread doesn’t seem to be a feature request, but I’d love to vote for this one also.
