WTH2 - WTH!? No RBAC - Role Based Access Control? (Users & Groups rights)

Since you are open to workarounds, make an input boolean that you check for being on in your automations or scripts. You can put that entity on a dashboard. Much simpler.

Thanks for your feedback. I actually got sidetracked today so couldnā€™t play with it much, but it seems I can set up a ā€œbuttonā€ card to turn on/off automations similar to how I am able to do with scripts. So will probably end up creating a new tab where I can have a list of automations my family might want to turn on/off on demand.

This nice thing about input booleans vs buttons is that you can easily see if theyā€™re on or off. I have an automation that resets a bunch of ā€œdisableā€ booleans for the notifications each day at midnight.

you can have a button which calls an automation or service, canā€™t you?

BTW Iā€™ve read about 100+ unread post and itā€™s sad how some users defend missing rbac or even disregard some otherā€™s users legit use-cases just for sake of justifying this shortcoming.
