Hello all,
I have the following question which I cannot understand: why is it that the automation section cannot be added to the lovelace sidebar?
I have seen some sort of methods that use custom side cards and some such but I couldn’t get them working. But in the end why is there not a simpler way to add it?
Cheers
You can add an iframe panel pointing to the automation url.
However it only saves you one click compared to going to Configuration → Automations.
i must be doing something wrong because I get the automations in the sidebar now and when I press it I just get another lovelace copy. I have added this in configuration.yaml:
panel_iframe:
automations:
title: "Automations"
url: "/config/automations.yaml"
require_admin: true
What is the correct url for automations?
Go to the automations page and look at the url in the browser bar, can’t check myself at the moment
I had the same frustration as the OP and now I wish I would’ve looked into this sooner. This helped me get Automations on the side bar. I just wish I would’ve gone it before I moved 300 devices and set up all my automations. Thanks
