From the UI choose **{% my config %}** which is located in the sidebar, then click on **{% my automations %}** to go to the automation editor. Press the **+** sign in the lower right corner to get started. This page uses the [Random sensor](/integrations/random#sensor) as an example. Any other sensor with a numeric value, can be used as well.
|
|
|
|
Choose a meaningful name for your automation rules.

|
If the value of the sensor is greater than 10, then the automation rule should apply.

|
Firing a [persistent notification](/integrations/persistent_notification/) is the result.

|
As "Service Data" we want a simple text that is shown as part of the notification.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
message: Sensor value greater than 10
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Automations created or edited via the user interface are activated immediately after saving the automation.

## Troubleshooting missing automations
|
|
|
|
When you're creating automations using the GUI and they don't appear in the UI, make sure that you add back `automation: !include automations.yaml` from the default configuration to your `configuration.yaml`.
