Options For Confirmation
If you define confirmation as an object instead of boolean, you can add more customization and configurations.
double_tap_action:
action: call-service
confirmation:
text: Are you sure you want to restart?
service: script.restart
hold_action:
action: call-service
confirmation: true
service: script.do_other_thing
{% configuration confirmation%}
text:
required: false
description: Text to present in the confirmation dialog.
type: string
exemptions:
required: false
description: "List of exemption objects. See below"
type: list
{% endconfiguration %}
Options For Exemptions
{% configuration exemptions %} user: required: true description: User ID for which the confirmation dialog will not be shown. type: string {% endconfiguration %}
double_tap_action:
action: call-service
confirmation:
text: Are you sure you want to restart?
exemptions:
- user: x9405b8c64ee49bb88c42000e0a9dfa8
- user: 88bcfbdc39155d16c3b2d09cbf8b0367
service: script.restart
Examples
Tap action implemented on an entity button card:
type: button
tap_action:
action: toggle
hold_action:
action: more-info
Limitations
It is not possible to use templates for actions. But calling a script is a good alternative.
