Home Assistant and WLED Presets

Integrations
18

I’d like to add something since I’m not seeing it anywhere else. Doing this doesn’t require any custom cards. Just vanilla HA, HA helpers, HA automations and official wled integration.

You can use the state of an input select helper or input select integration (in config.yaml) then add helper to a card in lovelace to easily change the effect. Helpers can be used via automations on all wled attribute states that are available with service calls. Also input select helper state can be set from wled attribute state when effect is changed by some other means such as changing a preset or changing the effect in wled web ui. Again this can be done for all wled attributes exposed in home assistant.

Here are my automations for controlling wled. I made a separate one for each but I’m sure this could be done more elegantly.
