Triggering the new HA reload from NR - SOLVED

Third party integrations Node-RED
1

Hi all,
With HA release 0.104 they have introduced the option to reload certain config elements without rebooting the installation such as input_text, input_boolean ect…

Running input_text.reload from the developer/services page in HA works a treat;
How can I do this within NodeRed?

I want to run ‘reload’ over all reloadable elements from a single inject node.
I’ve tried ‘call service’ and ‘fire event’ nodes with a simple inject node to fire them but nothing is working.
Thanks,

This is what it looks like in HA

You should use a call service node not a fire event node. :smiley:

Hi, I’ve tried both Service Call and Event,
This is what I have but still no joy…

SOLVED:
Use a call service node as below:

And here’s my flow to to reload all input_*
It’s a lot quicker than rebooting all the time.
