Dashboard Strategies

Dashboard Strategies are strategies that generate both a dashboard and the views within it.

What is a Dashboard?

A Dashboard is a page in the navbar that you can navigate to, where you can customize its layout, cards, and other elements.

Take a look at the example image:

Dashboard

  • The dashboard is the element in the sidebar marked in red
  • The views are the pages inside the dashboard marked in orange

A Dashboard Strategy generates both the dashboard and the views contained within it.

How do I generate a Dashboard with a Dashboard Strategy?

Simply write YAML as shown in the following example.

strategy:
  type: custom:example-dashboard-strategy
  # The configuration for this dashboard (dependent on the view; not related to HA configuration)
  config: config for this dashboard
# Home Assistant view options (currently, there are none for dashboards)
