Is it possible to find out who create an automation and when?
no
Good suggestion, but in this case I suspect he’s got teens/other people in the house who messed around with his automation. I doubt they would add a note, even if the possibility was there.
True. Time for a more collaborative approach, maybe. Get them to do some of the work.
Soon we’ll have posts from teenagers - “How can I stop my dad messing with my dashboards?”
Or a more confrontational approach.
I wonder if you can set an automation that disables the kid’s internet access for 2 hours when any automation is created or edited
As already answered, probably not
but you can probably know when it was created by looking at the last changed timestamp on the automations.yaml file. If the automation in question was the last one created then that should be the timestamp of the file.
If you don’t catch it before you also make a change then I doubt it.
Erm, can anyone tell me - can non-admin users create automations?
If not - problem solved)))
Thank you
I had already disabled the automation. The only other person who has admin claims, and I don’t disbelieve them, that they did not do anything. So I must have created it but a long while ago and then it suddenly was enabled. According to the log it only ran once, which as it was due to be triggered every minute is in itself odd.
Leaves me concerned.
