Home Assistant

You will need to generate a long-lived access token for an existing Home Assistant user in its profile.

Allowed fields: ["people_home", "lights_on", "switches_on"].


Up to a maximum of four custom states and/or templates can be queried via the custom property like in the example below. The custom property will have no effect as long as the fields property is defined.

  • state will query the state of the specified entity_id
    • state labels and values can be user defined and may reference entity attributes in curly brackets
    • if no state label is defined it will default to "{attributes.friendly_name}"
    • if no state value is defined it will default to "{state} {attributes.unit_of_measurement}"
  • template will query the specified template, see (Home Assistant Templating)[https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/templating]
    • if no template label is defined it will be empty
