Selecting multiple entities in the history view is a very useful tool for understanding interactions and testing automations. For clusters of entities I want to be able to check easily, I started adding entities card weblinks that jump directly to the history view.
For example, comparing inside and outside temperature with whether a door was opened:
This is much more convenient than clicking into the first entity's history and adding the others each time I want to see a particular comparison. The one thing you can't do is set a dynamic time window. If no date is provided, the view defaults to a small number of hours on the current day, which is usually too small. The "Show more" entity history links are generated with a
start_date
value corresponding to midnight UTC the day before, which gives a longer duration that is usually a more useful starting point.With that in mind:
/history
accepted Grafana-stylefrom=now-3d&to=now
relative dates.url
field supported templates, one could do/history?entity_id=&start_date={{(utcnow() - timedelta(days=3)).isoformat()}}
. That's clumsy, and the idea has been rejected in the past though. (Template support for weblink #4397)start_date
andend_date
aren't provided to be identical to the one used in "Show more" history links.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
