The Template integration lets you create helpers whose values and actions are based on templates. Spook inspects Template helpers created in the Home Assistant user interface and raises repair issues when it finds references that are no longer available.
Devices & entities¶
Spook does not provide any new devices or entities for this integration.
Actions¶
Spook does not provide action enhancements for this integration.
Repairs¶
While Spook is floating around in your Home Assistant instance, it raises a repair issue when it finds something that is not right.
Unknown referenced entities¶
Spook inspects templates in Template helpers for entity IDs that do not exist. The repair issue lists the helper and the unavailable entity IDs. To resolve the issue, open the linked helper, update the reference to an existing entity, or remove it. Spook automatically removes the repair issue once it is fixed.
Unknown referenced actions¶
Spook inspects action sequences configured in Template helpers, such as the
press action of a Template Button or the turn_on and turn_off actions of
a Template Switch. If an action is unavailable, the repair issue lists the
helper and the unavailable action.
To resolve the issue, open the linked helper, update the action to one provided by Home Assistant, or restore the integration or script that provided it. Templated action names are ignored because their value is determined at runtime. Spook automatically removes the repair issue once it is fixed.
