Look at the two

The top one is correct - where does name line up to switch?

The bottom one isn't - where does name line up to switch?

YAML is the mark up language used by Home Assistant, consistent indenting (two spaces per level) is key. Here is a primer, and this explains multi-line templates. For validating YAML see YAML Lint.

oh now it works

me not like this

[hoary nebula]

YAML is all about indenting

[silver whale]

ok, how can i add this to a switch?

i cannot find such entity

[hoary nebula]

Did you restart HA to load that YAML?

[silver whale]

yes

If you're having problems with your updates to your configuration:

• Check the troubleshooting steps
• Check your log file - remembering you may need to set logger to info or debug
• Explain what the problem you're having is - sharing configuration, errors, and logs

[silver whale]

man this thing is picky

[hoary nebula]

Yes

[dry linden]

To check your configuration use the command for your install method:

HAOS

ha core check

Container

docker commands

Core

Requires you to activate the venv first

[hoary nebula]

Always run that command when you touch YAML

[silver whale]

i had double command_line in there i am an amateur

[hoary nebula]

At least you're learning how to troubleshoot
