If you've ever wondered how to override an entity's state using an automation, just like with the developer tools, I have the solution for you in the form of a Python script!

This is incredibly useful, as it allows you to override the status value of motion detectors, lights, or any other entities in Home Assistant 🙌

Section for the Configuration.yaml:

python_script:

Folder to create (in the config folder):

python_scripts

File to create:

set_state.py

Code (content) for the file:

By the way, with the updated script above, it's also possible to override any attribute!

--------- Example ---------

service: python_script.set_state

data:

entity_id: light.stripes_wohnbereich

state: 'on'

brightness: 255
---------- ----------

🚨Note: Service data not visible for "Python Scripts: set_state"? (Only one?) 🚨
Unfortunately, a section of the video wasn't visible; you need to edit the service call in YAML mode:

####⁉️ Why not an input boolean, but a sensor?

In my opinion, a sensor is simply the "right" option, since I don't want to change the washing machine's status myself, as I would with an input boolean. An input boolean also works in practice for the washing machine example, of course, but as I said, it's just an example.
