How to setup yaml/not GUI - GUI forces setup? #378
|
I created a full yaml configuration in my configuration.yaml. I went to HACS and installed the intergration. I then went to Intergrations, added it, but it wants to force me through the GUI workflow? Did I miss something? Will the settings in that workflow be ignored? |

If you set it up through YAML there is no need to click it in Integrations. It should just work on restart without any UI involvement. |

Ah, got it. 10 years on and yaml+white spaces still get me. Just logged in and this works great. Thanks for this! Could I suggest that you add to the yaml instructions that note about "just working" without having to add it via intergrations? Even without my rookie mistake, I may have tried that anyway out of habit on a device that already had a token cached for login. |

That's sort of a general knowledge of Home Assistant thing (i.e. you typically either setup an integration via YAML or the UI, but not both) that applies to all integrations, but I suppose he could add such verbiage if he really wanted. |
