Tangentially did I miss 2025.9.4 getting blessed in MSR? I've been holding off
Cheers

I'd not agree. You were not obliged to build it in the first place!
C
Fabulous effort here by @toggledbits We owe a great deal!
C
You are both gents!

@toggledbits this is precisely what it is, yes
C
Sorry I tried to make it clear. For the avoidance of doubt the original post should (and shortly will) read
'Currently I am using the owntracks_sensor for tracking phones being in region in MSR and it works great.'
C
Yes that was stupid of me! Sorry!
said in Expose MSR entities:
Currently I am using the owntracks_sensor for tracking phones being in region in
MSR! Not HA!
So the owntracks_sensor exists in MSR and works great. I'm wondering if there's an easy way to expose to HA
What a buffoon
C
Probably a really dumb question.
Currently I am using the owntracks_sensor for tracking phones being in region in MSR and it works great.
Digging around with Home Assistant and toying with some dashboards, is there any way of exposing that sensor to HA trivially? I could set MSR to trip a virtual switch in OpenLuup which can then be exposed to HA (with all my other Vera devices) but that feels a bit in-elegant if I can do it directly.
Any thoughts?
Apologies if the ask is not clear/
TIA

@akbooer indeed so
C
I take it back. Worked immediately!
C
I must have missed something in the Voice preview set up then as I can't get TTS working (at least from the test situation)
I might try from your state
C
...is back....
C
Watching with great interest!
C
@akbooer I just don't get it. I guess it's less effort to make a video than actually write down the instructions. Sure, for somethings they can be useful but a 15 minute video for a 5 minute config. Grrr!
C
OK, so digging through stuff. Definite progress. I've got an OpenAI integration running, but just been told that 'Max output tokens reached' which seems a little odd as I've used precisely $0.01
Must go out now!
C
Thanks (again) I have found this
C
Cheers! I shall try and make some time
(Is it just me that hates having to watch videos? Can't we just have instructions written down? )
C
Given I'm starting from zero on this particular path it would be interestting to see how you set it up. Took me about 90 minutes to get a light to turn on! The documentation I've found so far is, well, poor
TIA

@akbooer I have Alexa that works really well for most voice control, but doesn't interact with HA. I have virtual switches in OpenLuup that are exposed HA bridge, so effectively I simply ask to flip a switch and the automation follows.
The exception is my Logitech Elite hubs which integrate with Alexa directly (and also work really well)
@toggledbits that would be awesome. I'm keen on the more interactive stuff (i.e. where the VA prompts for activity)
Certainly I can make Alexa speak, but a simple 'yes' or 'no' response isn't going to get anything from her.
