I am looking for a way to read a specific config parameter using a script or automation. Is such a thing possible? I know you can use zwave_js.invoke_cc_api but I dont know how to get a response from that.
action: zwave_js.invoke_cc_api
data:
device_id:
- 4ecb15be7211864018cfa2150db71f3d
command_class: "112"
method_name: get
parameters:
- 8
Seems to work, but theres no response.

Is this an unknown parameter or something?
All the defined parameters already have associated entities. If it's defined you can just enable the entity and use it like any other.

I guess so, thats a valid point. I needed it for a specific parameter but tdecided to make a script that can be called on any parameter. In such a case it will not be enabled, but for the specific case I need, yes, it can be done that way.

I would recommend the entities. AFAIK none of the Z-Wave actions have support for responses.

Would you know if there is a way to programatically enable entities maybe using rest appi and curl? or is the only way by gui or dangerously by editing core registry?

I am not aware of a way. What are you trying to do?
tepid tulip
Well I did it manually, but for over 30 devices with more on the way, i would make a script that repeats for each device and enables the disabled entity. Its if I want to do it for another entity or if I would want to temporarily enable all disabled entities on a specific device for testing purposes and then disable them.
Use case of all entities is a door/temp sensor that has some extra switches for tampering etc that are not showing the right state and I want to see if it is maybe being in one of the other disabled entities which are hard to know from the names.
stiff vessel
Yeah, you can use the entity list, filter on the name, and enable them in bulk.
