I found the previous description of the homeassistant.reload_core_config service to be misleading. The entire configuration.yaml isn't reloaded. p.s. first attempt at a docs PR.

|
The Home Assistant integration provides generic implementations like the generic `homeassistant.turn_on`.
|
|
|
|
## Services
|
|
|
|
The `homeassistant` integration provides services for controlling Home Assistant itself, as well as generic controls for any entity.
|
|
|
|
### Service `homeassistant.check_config`
|
|
|
|
Reads the configuration files and checks them for correctness, but **does not** load them into Home Assistant. Creates a persistent notification and log entry if errors are found.
|
|
|
|
### Service `homeassistant.reload_core_config`
|
|
|
|
Reloads the core configuration under `homeassistant:` and all linked files. Once loaded the new configuration is applied. New `customize:` information will be applied the next time the state of the entity gets updated.
|
|
|
|
### Service `homeassistant.restart`
|
|
|
|
Restarts the Home Assistant instance (also reloading the configuration on start).
|
|
|
|
This will also do a configuration check before doing a restart. If the configuration check fails then Home Assistant will not be restarted, instead a persistent notification with the ID `persistent_notification.homeassistant_check_config` will be created. The logs will show details on what failed the configuration check.
|
|
|
|
### Service `homeassistant.stop`
|
|
|
|
Stops the Home Assistant instance. Home Assistant must be restarted from the Host device to run again.
|
|
|
|
### Service `homeassistant.set_location`
|
|
|
|
Update the location of the Home Assistant default zone (usually "Home").

### Service `homeassistant.toggle`

|
|
|
Generic service to toggle devices on/off under any domain. Same usage as the light.turn_on, switch.turn_on, etc. services.
