Hi all. A friend of mine has deleted the content of the main dashboard. In Spanish is the "Resumen" dashboard, I don`t know the name in Englis, sorry. Although I have created a new one with the same content, I would like to restore it. Thanks in advance

Have you tried just restoring your HA from backup?

Hi, I'm the friend that made the mistake 😅

The dashboards are stored in yaml files. I may also be possible to restore a backup to another HA install, then pull the dashboard file out of that and paste it into your current instance if you've done extra work since it was deleted.

#

If you are not familiar with the system, I encourage you to reach out to the owner of the HA instance before doing more.

As a new installation, just after that we made a lot of automations, so if a backup restoration is made, the solution is worse than the problem 😅

THat's why I suggested a restore to a different HA install, then just pulling the file you need.

#

I did that myself after realizing I did something bad a day after doing all kinds of work,

We created an alternative general panel that is working OK. I also tried to copy the yaml text and it doesn't work neither

#

Thanks for your advice

Of course, all this is contingent on you having made a backup at some point after building that dashboard.

In a few days, the SLZB-06 ZigBee coordinator is coming and maybe a fresh install is a good idea

If you get it restored to another instance, go to the desired dashboard, show RAW Yaml, and copy the whole works.

You should be able to just paste that into the empty dashboard you created of the same name and everything will be back.
