Module Alert Center

Alert Center

Module type: alert_center · Category: Data · Free

Active Home Assistant alerts in one prioritized card.

What it monitors

• alert.* entities (the HA alert: integration)
• binary_sensor.* with alert-relevant device_class (smoke / gas / leak / problem / safety / motion / window / door / lock / etc.)
• Lock entities (alert states)
• Alarm panel entities (active alert states)

Sorted by severity so critical issues appear first.

Options

title	string	Alert Center	Card heading.

Behavior

• Auto-detection only surfaces entities currently in an active alert state.
• Manually included entities are still state-checked — inactive ones are not shown.
• Hidden entities always take precedence.
• Tap any alert row → more-info dialog for that entity.

Examples

Critical-only mode

• include_alert_domain: false
• include_binary_sensors: true
• hidden_entities: noisy motion sensors you don't want surfaced
• Use Logic-and-Conditions template to hide the whole module when there are no critical alerts:

  {{ states.binary_sensor
     | selectattr('attributes.device_class', 'in', ['smoke','gas','leak','problem'])
     | selectattr('state', 'eq', 'on')
     | list | count > 0 }}

Always-visible status board

• Default settings + show_all_clear: true so it shows "All clear" when nothing's wrong.
