You don't stick dashboards on devices, they always live in HA

#

if you're trying to display HA's UI then that device needs a working modern browser

well...

i mean, what i REALLY want to do is be able to tell the mycroft, "hey neon, turn on the livingroom light", and it will do that through its link to HA. in this case, the HA client provided natively in Neon appears to be designed to interact with the HA server and display widgets.

do you know something about it?

Never heard of the Neon before your posts

#

#voice-assistants-archived may be able to help with the voice assistant side

#

yeah, i might try there. i just figured if i could see the client connection working as expected, the voice part wouldn't be too much more effort

#

but maybe i have it backwards lol

#

anyway, thanks for responding

#

Well, they're completely unrelated things

#

Displaying HA's UI is just about a web browser

#

Voice assistant is a whole different world

#

you may be right, though regarding the web browser part, i was thinking the whole purpose of using a longterm api key was to access/consume HA via API, meaning the display may or may not be a web browser, it could just be whatever interface is native to the platform, rendering the data etc

#

so i was thinking the voice assist part would be leveraging the same api?

hexed lynx Oct 26, 2023, 6:56 AM

#

Well, the voice assistant will use the API (looking at their docs)

#

For the display though, HA's UI is only accessible with a browser

fading glacier Oct 26, 2023, 6:57 AM

#

that's what i mean, i don't think it's rendering from HA's UI

hexed lynx Oct 26, 2023, 6:57 AM

#

If showing anything from HA on the Mycroft needs a key then that's not going to be using HA's UI

#

However, the docs on that are ... zero

fading glacier Oct 26, 2023, 6:57 AM

#

yup

#

Good work Mycroft 😛

fading glacier Oct 26, 2023, 6:58 AM

#

hence why i came here, 8 hours of googling later lol

#

shot in the dark

#

next is... i dunno... hacking?

#

🪓

#

I'd reach out to the Mycroft devs and ask them for help

#

They should know how their product works

fading glacier Oct 26, 2023, 7:00 AM

#

yeah, i think that's actually the next step
