House Assistant 2026.11! 🎉

That is the most important launch we’ve ever shipped, by far. It’s ridiculously massive. 🤯 An enormous shout-out to everybody who helped make it occur, thanks! ❤️

For years, HACS, the House Assistant Neighborhood Retailer, has been the place to search out customized integrations, dashboard playing cards, and themes made by the neighborhood. Beginning with this launch, it’s constructed proper into House Assistant as the brand new Market. I’ve been engaged on bringing it over myself, and my aim was easy: should you use HACS in the present day, it ought to really feel like solely the identify modified. Every little thing you put in stays put in and retains getting updates. And should you by no means tried HACS as a result of putting in it felt like a hurdle, that hurdle is gone: it’s merely there, below Settings, on each set up sort. 🛍️

None of this may exist with out @ludeeus, who began HACS and donated it to the Open House Basis, and all of the maintainers and builders who constructed that ecosystem through the years. 🙏 And that is simply the primary model of what a market for House Assistant might develop into.

You realize by now I’m an automation particular person, so I’m additionally very completely happy you may lastly exclude gadgets from a goal. Activate all of the lights downstairs, besides the one within the kitchen? Carried out. And it stays good: add one other gentle to the kitchen subsequent month, and it’s disregarded too. 🧠

Then there’s naming. Greater than 4 years within the making, entity naming acquired a whole rethink: you identify a factor as soon as, and House Assistant provides the context the place it helps. Honest warning: it is a backward-incompatible change, and a few names in your dashboards will look completely different after updating. The total story is in its personal weblog publish.

There’s extra: Matter cameras you may discuss again by means of, LoRaWAN assist, sections that fill themselves, backups on native drives, a bunch of latest methods to search out out why one thing occurred, and 38 new integrations! 🚀

Two extra issues earlier than you dive in. November is the Month of “What the Heck?!” once more, and this yr it’s about everybody who lives in your house, together with the individuals who didn’t set it up. Does your associate, child, or housemate get aggravated by one thing in House Assistant? Have them share it on the discussion board! You may learn all about it in the announcement. 🗣️

And this Saturday, November 7, is Neighborhood Day! There are 97 meetups around the globe, in additional than 30 international locations, so there’s an excellent probability there’s one close to you. That is your final probability to enroll. I’ll be on the meetup in Enschede myself, and I hope to see a few of you there. 👋

Benefit from the launch!

Welcome to the Market

For years, the neighborhood has constructed customized integrationsA customized integration is an integration that has been created by somebody from the House Assistant neighborhood and has been revealed for others to make use of at their very own threat. Customized integrations are usually not supported by the House Assistant challenge. They don’t seem to be reviewed or examined by the House Assistant growth staff and thus might negatively impression the soundness of your House Assistant occasion. An instance of a customized integration is the Spook integration., dashboard playing cards, themes, and templates for House Assistant. Individuals discovered them by means of HACS, the House Assistant Neighborhood Retailer. With this launch, HACS turns into a part of House Assistant as the brand new Market.

The Market brings the prevailing HACS expertise into House Assistant and the common launch course of. It really works with each set up sort, together with House Assistant ContainerHouse Assistant Container is a standalone container-based set up of House Assistant Core. Any OCI suitable runtime can be utilized, however the documentation focus is on Docker. [Learn more], with out manually downloading or unpacking recordsdata. Every little thing within the Market is free, and that won’t change.

Browse and set up

You’ll find the Market below Settings > Market. It comes with House Assistant, so there’s nothing to arrange. As an administrator, you may browse the catalog and set up integrations, dashboard playing cards, themes, and templates. You don’t want a GitHub account to put in or replace tasks.

Putting in a brand new integrationIntegrations join and combine House Assistant together with your gadgets, providers, and extra. [Learn more] acquired shorter, too. In HACS, you downloaded it, restarted House Assistant, went to Units & providers, and looked for it once more to set it up. Within the Market, you choose Set up, and also you land straight in its setup circulate, and not using a restart. Updates nonetheless want a restart for now.

The web page of every challenge now exhibits greater than its README: how typically it was downloaded, its stars on GitHub, and the House Assistant model it requires, so you realize what you’re moving into prior to installing.

Each challenge you put in will get an “replace entity”An replace entity is an entity that signifies if an replace is out there for a tool or service. [Learn more], so updates present up below Settings > Updates, subsequent to the updates of House Assistant itself. After an replace, a restore tells you when a restart is required, and may restart House Assistant for you.

The primary time you open the Market, it exhibits a discover. Every little thing within the Market is made by the neighborhood. It’s not examined, audited, or supported by the House Assistant challenge, and it runs inside your House Assistant. Learn the discover, choose I perceive the dangers and agree, and also you’re in. Shopping works earlier than that. Putting in and updating doesn’t.

The Market provides a number of enhancements:

• Group the Browse and Put in lists by standing, sort, or supply. House Assistant remembers your grouping.
• Filter by supply to tell apart the neighborhood catalog from customized repositories.
• Choose a number of repositories on the Put in tab and uninstall them directly.
• Skipped updates now not maintain a repository on the prime of the record or rely within the replace badge. A brand new launch makes the replace accessible once more.
• Search, filters, and sorting are saved within the URL, so you may share a hyperlink to a particular Market view.
• Integrations present their model pictures prior to installing them.

Customized repositories

Not each challenge is within the catalog. So as to add one that’s lacking, choose Add from hyperlink and enter its repository URL. The Market then lists it together with your different repositories.

The Customized repositories web page lists repositories you added this manner and allows you to open or take away them. A repository stays within the record till you uninstall it.

Customized repositories require a GitHub connection. The Market makes use of GitHub machine sign-in, so that you approve the connection on GitHub with out coming into your password in House Assistant. The connection solely reads public data and can’t entry personal repositories.

The place your downloads come from

By default, the Market will get its catalog and every little thing you put in from GitHub. The place GitHub can’t be reached, resembling in mainland China, you may swap to the mirrors run by the House Assistant China neighborhood. Go to Settings > Market, choose the three dots menu within the upper-right nook, and choose Obtain supply. If the Market can not attain the catalog and a mirror is out there to your nation, a restore suggests it.

Every little thing the Market downloads then goes by means of whoever runs that mirror, and thru a third-party proxy each time these mirrors can’t be reached: the catalog, and the code you put in. Solely choose a obtain supply you belief. When you used the Chinese language model of HACS, the Market selects these mirrors for you when it migrates.

Thanks, @frenck!

Thanks, HACS

HACS made this attainable. @ludeeus based it and donated it to the Open House Basis a few yr and a half in the past, which is what made bringing it into House Assistant attainable. Along with the HACS maintainers and the various builders publishing their tasks, he constructed the ecosystem that the Market now carries ahead. Thanks. ❤️

When you use HACS in the present day, there’s nothing you should do. House Assistant migrates it when it begins after the replace. Every little thing you put in stays put in and retains receiving updates, your customized repositories and replace entities carry over, and hyperlinks and bookmarks that time to HACS now open the Market.

The HACS installer stops at House Assistant 2026.11, so a separate HACS set up is now not attainable on this model. The previous HACS received’t get new releases both: the Market ships with each House Assistant replace. Every little thing you should know concerning the transfer, for customers and for publishers, is within the Market documentation.

This can be a place to begin, and the primary model of what a market for House Assistant might develop into. Obtained concepts? Share them within the Market part of the characteristic request discussions on GitHub. Discovered a bug? Report it within the House Assistant challenge tracker, not within the HACS repository.

[Learn more], situationCircumstances test whether or not one thing is true at that second, for instance, whether or not a door is closed. You should use them in automations and scripts. If a situation isn’t met, the actions that come after it in the identical sequence don’t run. On the prime stage of an automation or script, this stops the automation or script. [Learn more], or motionAn motion makes House Assistant do one thing, for instance, activate a light-weight, ship a notification, or activate a scene. Automations and scripts run a listing of actions. [Learn more], choose Exclude goal subsequent to Add goal, then select what to depart out. You too can open a goal’s particulars, clear the checkboxes of the gadgets to exclude, and choose Apply.

Every exclusion is listed beneath the targets it takes entities out of, with the variety of entities it removes. An exclusion that doesn’t match something has no impact, and is listed below Exclusions with no impact, the place you may take away it.

And exclusions keep as good because the targets they belong to. House Assistant works them out each time the set off, situation, or motion runs. Exclude the kitchen, add one other gentle to the kitchen subsequent month, and that gentle is disregarded as properly. No want to the touch the automation once more.

This works in triggers, situations, and actions, in each automations and scripts. When you write YAMLYAML is a human-readable information serialization language. It’s used to retailer and transmit information in a structured format. In House Assistant, YAML is used for configuration, for instance within the configuration.yaml or automations.yaml recordsdata. [Learn more], add an exclude block to the goal, with the identical keys because the goal itself.

Copy and paste dashboard sections

In dashboard edit mode, you may copy or lower a piece, then paste it after one other part. You may transfer sections between views and dashboards with out dragging them throughout the display. Thanks, @jce200!

Copy, lower, and paste sections from the part menu.

Sections that fill themselves

A dashboard part is often a listing of playing cards you place collectively by hand. Add a brand new gentle to the lounge, and it’s a must to bear in mind so as to add its card too. Automated sections maintain that for you: they choose their playing cards themselves, and keep updated while you add or take away gadgetsA tool is a mannequin representing a bodily or logical unit that incorporates entities. and entitiesAn entity represents a sensor, actor, or perform in House Assistant. Entities are used to watch bodily properties or to manage different entities. An entity is often a part of a tool or a service. [Learn more].

Once you create a piece, House Assistant now asks what you need: a handbook part you fill card by card, an automated part, or the part you simply copied. Decide Automated part, and also you get the record of automated sections, every with a reside preview, so that you see what you get earlier than including it.

Decide an automated part, and see what it appears like earlier than including it.

Frequent controls exhibits the entities you employ essentially the most, identical to on the Overview dashboard. Subsequent to it, two automated sections are new on this launch. The Gadget part exhibits the entities of 1 machineA tool is a mannequin representing a bodily or logical unit that incorporates entities., as tiles or in a single entities card, grouped by class, with the machine identify, its spaceAn space in House Assistant is a logical grouping of gadgets and entities that represents a room or house in your house, resembling the lounge, kitchen, or storage.

Thanks, @piitaya!

New playing cards and badges

The brand new Date card exhibits the present date. The Alert badge exhibits an entityAn entity represents a sensor, actor, or perform in House Assistant. Entities are used to watch bodily properties or to manage different entities. An entity is often a part of a tool or a service. [Learn more]’s state on a coloured background that may pulse. The Sensor card takes a shade, which tints each its icon and its graph. For goal temperature controls, you may select buttons or a slider. When including a card or badge, a paste bar helps you to add a copied merchandise.

Thanks, @piitaya!

Modify hue and saturation from a light-weight tile.

Identify it as soon as, House Assistant provides the context

Identify a factor as soon as, and House Assistant makes positive it is sensible all over the place. That’s the concept behind how entitiesAn entity represents a sensor, actor, or perform in House Assistant. Entities are used to watch bodily properties or to manage different entities. An entity is often a part of a tool or a service. [Learn more] are named from this launch on, and it has been greater than 4 years within the making. You give an entity its personal identify, like “Temperature”. House Assistant is aware of which machineA tool is a mannequin representing a bodily or logical unit that incorporates entities. it belongs to, and by which spaceAn space in House Assistant is a logical grouping of gadgets and entities that represents a room or house in your house, resembling the lounge, kitchen, or storage. [Learn more] that machine lives, so it will possibly add that context the place it helps. By default, that’s the identify of the machine: the “Temperature” of a “Thermostat” within the “Bed room” exhibits up as “Thermostat Temperature”. The place you need extra, a card can add the realm too, like “Bed room Thermostat Temperature”.

Naming has been a subject locally for years, with threads like “How do you identify your gadgets?” and “Naming methods for entities?”, all on the lookout for a system that retains a rising dwelling readable.

It’s time to let these programs go. You shouldn’t want a method to make sense of the knowledge in House Assistant. House Assistant ought to provide the context you want, for the time being you want it. Now you rename the machine, and each entity on it follows. Entities you renamed, and entities you by no means touched, get their context the identical approach.

You see this in dashboards, settings, the exercise and logbook, the voice assistant settings, and the apps. The identical identify, in the identical construction, all over the place you look.

A couple of issues to know:

• Renaming an entity solely renames the entity. If you wish to change the identify of the machine, rename the machine. If an entity represents the principle perform of its machine, activate Fundamental entity of the machine in its settings, and it goes by the identify and the realm of the machine.
• Units with a number of elements, like an influence strip, now get a machineA tool is a mannequin representing a bodily or logical unit that incorporates entities. per half, every with its personal identify and spaceAn space in House Assistant is a logical grouping of gadgets and entities that represents a room or house in your house, resembling the lounge, kitchen, or storage. [Learn more]. These are referred to as little one gadgets. A baby machine inherits the realm of its guardian, till you give it one in every of its personal. Integrations are transferring to them one after the other, beginning with the multi-channel switches in Tuya.
• Your personal names are saved. House Assistant migrates names you set. If an entity’s displayed identify modifications, the previous identify stays an alias for voice assistants. For instance, “activate the ceiling gentle” continues to work.
• Templates: The friendly_name attribute is deliberate for deprecation. Use entity_name(), device_name(), and area_name() to construct the identify you want.

What doesn’t change: entity IDs. Your automationsAutomations in House Assistant assist you to routinely reply to issues that occur in and round your house. [Learn more], scriptsA script is a saved record of steps that runs while you begin it, for instance, from a dashboard, with Help, or from an automation. Not like an automation, a script has no triggers, so it doesn’t begin by itself. [Learn more], and dashboards maintain working.

We’re upfront about one factor: it is a backward-incompatible change. Some names look completely different after the replace, and also you discover that almost all in your dashboards. Playing cards, badges, and rows and not using a identify now present the machine identify adopted by the entity identify, as a substitute of the pleasant identify. Making them shorter is fast: rename the machine or the entity, activate Fundamental entity of the machine for the entity that represents the machine, or set a reputation on the cardboard. The main points are within the backward-incompatible modifications beneath.

That is the quick model. A separate weblog publish about entity naming tells the complete story.

This challenge ran for greater than 4 years, and many individuals labored on it alongside the best way. Thanks to everybody who helped make this occur! 🙏

Kinds that ask solely what they want

Establishing an integrationIntegrations join and combine House Assistant together with your gadgets, providers, and extra. [Learn more] typically meant studying previous choices that had nothing to do together with your decisions. A subject can now seem solely when one other subject has a sure worth, so a type asks what’s related and leaves out the remaining. Whereas a subject is hidden, it isn’t required, and its worth isn’t saved.

You may already see it within the integrations for AI dialog brokers, the place the settings you hardly ever contact keep out of the best way till you ask for them.

The identical works for a blueprintA blueprint is a script, automation, or template entity configuration with sure elements marked as configurable. This lets you create a number of scripts, automations, or template entities based mostly on the identical blueprint, with every having its personal configuration-specific settings. Blueprints are shared by the neighborhood on the blueprints trade within the discussion board. [Learn more]. An enter, or a complete group of inputs, can rely on the solutions you gave earlier, so a blueprint solely asks what nonetheless applies.

Thanks, @piitaya!

From energy to vitality in a single step

The Power dashboard works with vitality in kilowatt-hours, however loads of gadgetsA tool is a mannequin representing a bodily or logical unit that incorporates entities. solely report energy in watts. A tool like that would not be added instantly: first you needed to arrange a sensorSensors return details about a factor, as an example the extent of water in a tank. [Learn more] that provides the ability up over time, then come again and add the machine.

House Assistant now affords to try this for you. Add a person machine, a photo voltaic panel, or your house consumption with solely an influence sensor, and while you save, House Assistant affords to derive the vitality sensor from it, or to reuse one you derived from the identical sensor earlier. Gasoline and water work the identical approach: choose a sensor that experiences a circulate fee, and House Assistant affords to derive the entire from it.

Thanks, @MindFreeze!

Why did that occur?

A lightweight turned on, and no person touched it. Or an automationAutomations in House Assistant assist you to routinely reply to issues that occur in and round your house. [Learn more] did one thing you didn’t anticipate. Discovering out why is a part of residing with a wise dwelling, so this launch provides a handful of the way to search out the reply sooner.

Accounts that don’t belong to an individual, just like the one utilized by Node-RED, rely as integrations. Entries and not using a recognized trigger are listed below Different.

Thanks, @piitaya!

Observe a hint into the script it referred to as

When an automationAutomations in House Assistant assist you to routinely reply to issues that occur in and round your house. [Learn more] or scriptA script is a saved record of steps that runs while you begin it, for instance, from a dashboard, with Help, or from an automation. Not like an automation, a script has no triggers, so it doesn’t begin by itself. [Learn more] runs one other script, or triggers an automation, the step in its hint now has a View hint of hyperlink to precisely that run. Earlier than, you needed to discover the correct run your self, by timestamp. It really works from automation to script, script to script, and automation to automation, for every iteration of a repeat, and for a script that begins itself. The hyperlink exhibits up within the step particulars and within the hint timeline. The web page additionally retains the run you’re looking at in its tackle, so going again in your browser takes you again to the earlier run.

Thanks, @Xyolyp!

Dwell logs for every integration

Whereas debug logging is enabled for an integrationIntegrations join and combine House Assistant together with your gadgets, providers, and extra. [Learn more], the banner on its web page now has a Present logs button, subsequent to Disable. It opens a dialog with solely the log traces of that integration, together with the libraries it makes use of: first what it logged since House Assistant began, then new traces as they arrive in. You may search, flip line wrapping on or off, and obtain what you captured. Useful when you’re making an attempt to breed a problem, with out digging by means of the complete log.

The logs web page below Settings > System > Logs acquired a filter as properly. Choose a number of integrations, and the errors record and the uncooked logs solely present their traces. Your search, your filter, and the uncooked view are saved within the tackle, so you may bookmark a filtered view or share a hyperlink to it. Looking the uncooked logs now exhibits every match with three traces round it, the best way a diff does, and a button reveals the traces in between. When an appApps are extra standalone third-party software program packages that may be put in on House Assistant OS. [Learn more] replace fails, opening its logs takes you straight to the traces of that app.

Thanks, @erwindouna and @timmo001!

Take away unhealthy readings out of your historical past

One unhealthy measurement can spoil the graph of a sensorSensors return details about a factor, as an example the extent of water in a tank. [Learn more]. “Statistics”House Assistant retains statistics for sensors which have a state class, resembling measurement, complete, or complete rising. Each 5 minutes, it saves short-term statistics, that are deleted after 10 days by default. Each hour, it saves long-term statistics, that are by no means deleted routinely. The Power dashboard and statistics playing cards use them. [Learn more] of values like temperature can’t be adjusted, so the one repair was to delete the entire statistic and lose its historical past. Now you may delete only a time vary. In Settings > Instruments > Statistics, choose the delete possibility of a statistic, choose the time vary, and the dialog previews the information earlier than you delete something. Every little thing outdoors that vary stays.

Thanks, @balloob!

Zoom in on a chart

Charts that plot values over time now zoom with a plain drag: drag throughout the half you wish to see, and the chart follows. A slim slider seems beneath to maneuver or resize the vary, and scrolling sideways pans alongside. On the historical past web page, one zoom bar drives each chart directly, so you may line up what occurred throughout a number of entitiesAn entity represents a sensor, actor, or perform in House Assistant. Entities are used to watch bodily properties or to manage different entities. An entity is often a part of a tool or a service. [Learn more].

Thanks, @MindFreeze!

Each motion, on the report

Settings > Instruments has a brand new Motion historical past tab. It lists the actionsAn motion makes House Assistant do one thing, for instance, activate a light-weight, ship a notification, or activate a scene. Automations and scripts run a listing of actions. [Learn more] that had been referred to as in House Assistant, with the motion, its targets, what brought on it, and when. You may search the record and choose a time vary. Choose an motion to see its particulars: the trigger, the person, the context ID, and the information it was referred to as with. Copy that information as YAMLYAML is a human-readable information serialization language. It’s used to retailer and transmit information in a structured format.
