The group platform can create a cover that combines several cover entities into one.

To enable Cover Groups in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
cover:
  - platform: group
    entities:
      - cover.hall_window
      - cover.living_room_window

{% configuration %} name: description: Name to use in the frontend. required: false type: string default: "Cover Group" entities: description: List of all cover entities you want to control. required: true type: [string | list] {% endconfiguration %}

{% linkable_title Functionality %}

It works best if you group covers with the same supported features together (like support for open/close/stop/position/tilt controls), but is not limited to it. In case you have bundled covers with different features together, the controls will only affect those covers that support the actions.
