Obtaining the Access Token for Home Assistant

Go to your Home Assistant instance (e.g. https://myhomeassistant:8123)
Click on your profile (next to notifications) in the left sidebar
Scroll down to the Long-Lived Access Tokens section
Create a token via Create Token
Store the token in a secure location; Home Assistant won't show it again
Open the Raycast preferences for Home Assistant or start a Home Assistant command
Set your Home Assistant URL (e.g. https://myhomeassistant:8123)
Set your access token from the previous step into the API Token field

Now you should be able to manage your Home Assistant instance with Raycast 🚀.

Home Network Detection

You can optionally define an internal URL for your local home network, which typically offers a faster connection. The internal URL is used when your home network's Wi-Fi SSID is detected or when the internal URL is pingable (ping can be disabled in cases where it may be slow). You can define one or multiple home network SSIDs.

Example

Home Assistant URL: https://1234321234331.ui.nabu.casa
Internal URL: http://homeassistant.local:8123
Home Wi-Fi SSID: MyWifi1, MyWifi2

If the current Wi-Fi SSID is MyWifi1 the internal URL will be used. If the current Wi-Fi SSID is AnotherNetwork the Home Assistant URL will be used.
