Hi, I’m new to Home Assistant. When adding a card to a dashboard, the visual mode presents me with an entity pulldown with over 220 options for my house (which I suspect isn’t even large compared to others). If, for example, I want to add all the things with batteries to show a “what’s running low” card, it’s a lot of work to scroll through and find the 40+ things that I need to add (I have found a plugin for exactly this battery stuff, but I’m curious about a more general use case)
If I go to the YAML editor (and after reading lots of docs) it seems like my only option there is to also explicitly map each entity_id, which is also exhausting, results in a long unwieldy config and needs to be updated any time I add something new.
Are there any template configs I’ve missed, or any plugins available that add some kind of selector syntax for describing the entities to include in a card? Am I misunderstanding how I should be approaching configuration, and there’s some other way to achieve what I want?
Thanks!
