listen event by label

[turboc1208]

Can we listen for events by label? I have 10 irrigation zones and would like to listen for a change in any of them. Or provide label as a way to filter the all events node.

There’s a flow in the cookbook section of the documentation site that shows how to do this:

Not quite. These appear to be labels that are added as part of the message. I'm talking about labels for entities in HomeAssistant. For example I have 10 entities in home assistant with the label irrigation. These are the switches that actually turn the sprinklers on and off. I want to be able to listen for one of them to change.

It was a relatively short number this time, so I just put them all in the listen as separate entities and it's working. Whats interesting is the "get entities" node does pull them bay label but it's not event triggered.

No, that flow definitely works based on the labels you assign in the Home Assistant UI.
