So I'm not very experienced i Home assistant. Had it running on a pi for about a year now. Last week I built a home server and started running home assitant on it in a VM.

Started adding my devices and started building my automations. I build automations thourhg the UI " Create automation" as I have always done, but since today when I build a new automation and click save, it's just gone?

When I open the Automations.yaml file, it's there.

The previous 5 automations that I built are there, but new ones inmediatly disappear.. Anyone who has some advice on how to fix this or what I am doing wrong?

"When I open the Automations.yaml file, it's there. "
Funny you mention this because how you describe it I ran into this exact issue like a week ago

#

You might have issues with your config

#

Yaml is still considered yaml config, and that config is all loaded at once. So if you made some changes to your yaml config that aren't valid, your automations won't reload

#

Click on "Check configuration" and see if there are any config errors

So that means I will have to start all over again I'm guessing?

No, if you have your automations in your yaml you're OK as far as not having your automations completely lost

#

Try clicking the button below to reload your automations

#

So basically the automations that you have in your yaml that you created through the UI aren't showing up in the list of all automations?

Huh interesting...

I already restarted the entire device and that did nothing.

That's very odd because restarting HA reloads your config as well

Weird..
