This way you should be able to find and add any (sub)menu you like to the sidebar.įor me these three configuration pages were the most important ones but of course you can add links to pretty much any other part of Home Assistan in the same way. Using this I was able to set the url_path to config/automation, which works just fine. To find the right one for automations I used the menu to navigate to the automations and checked the URL in the browser. This path decides where the entry will be linking too. You can choose any material icon if you are unsure which ones are available check this website. The sidebar_title is the String that will be displayed in the sidebar later and the sidebar_icon the icon beside it. If you want to add a new one you just copy one of them and edit a couple of attributes.

These three entries are adding the “ Automation“, “ Integrations” and “ ServerControl” sidebar items you can see in the screenshot above. Then you can use any text editor (I prefer Visual Studio Code or Sublime text) to edit the file. To edit this file you can either use the file editor add-on or just share your Home Assistant configuration path via samba (if you are running on a Raspberry Pi for example).

HARMONY ASSISTANT ADD TITLE UPDATE
Update: in a new Home Assistant update the menu structure was changed which stops the first entry from working. Either edit your existing panel_custom entry or or create a new one and add this code. To do this you need to edit your configuration.yaml file.

If you are heavily using the UI, especially when you set up a nice Home Assistant instance you might be tired clicking through the same menus time and again though and start wishing for more sidebar entries.įortunately with the help of this blog post here I was able to find a way to add sidebar items linking to pretty much any (sub)menu. Unfortunately the normal edit mode is limited to a set of preexisting entries.

How do add additional entries to the Home Assistant sidebar Once everything is arranged to your liking just click the “ DONE” button on top to save everything. I have personally removed the media browser and the map entries as I do not use those (no location tracker active right now and Home Assistant is running inside Docker, so not much media to browse). The order of the entries can simply be changed by dragging them around.
