Device is unavailable

[bazcurtis]

Thanks for such a great Integration. I want to create an alert for any device that is Unavailable. This led me to creating three alerts, sensor., light. and switch.*. I was hoping to make just one alert. Is there a way to monitor a device rather than a specific entity? Ideally I could then filter in or out devices I want to monitor.

I think I have cracked this now.

I have used this. This is a snippet from the larger overall code.

  - operator: contains
    state: Unavailable
    message: Device is unavailable
    priority: 1
    theme: emergency
    icon: ""
    entity_filter: _identify
    label_filter:
      - alert_card
    show_filter_state: true
    name: Device is unavailable
    disable_animation: true
    entity_filter_exclude:
      - button.mumlumi_lumi_weather_identify
      - button.mummum_aqara_identify

It is using Identify as the entity filter. It seems everything has one of those. I then add a label to everything I want to monitor.
