DJGummikuhIs there a way in #HomeAssistant to group Automations somehow? I'm starting to get more and more automations and sorting them just by name would require stringent naming conventions, at which I suck.

Grouping Automations on frontend for organization
It would be very nice if we could add a group tag, or create “folders” to sort and organize the automations that are created in the front end. Maybe even add the option to sort, filter, search based on the content of the automations, like the trigger platform, or the action data.
Corey Edwards@DJGummikuh I'm write my automations all in yaml so I group them into files by purpose (kitchen.yaml, security.yaml, garden.yaml, etc).
I also went for a naming scheme that has turned out to be pretty easy to maintain. Everything is "WHEN X DO Y". For example, "WHEN front door opens DO turn on outside lights". Very readable, fairly sortable, nicely searchable.

Dan Tucker@DJGummikuh I started out with pretty decent naming conventions: Room-Lights On, etc. It's kinda gone to rubbish over time as I added more automation rules. Fortunately, the search works well enough! 😆
You can also go to a device and see what automations are running that device. Grouping ability would be lovely though, such as devices are grouped in rooms
