00:00 Intro
01:42 Prepare for new role and user
Before we configure sensor in Home Assistant, we have to create new role &user in Proxmox.
02:00 - create new role - with only one privilege - VM.Audit
02:46 - create new user for Home Assistant integration - I use Proxmox VE authentication server for realm
03:52 - Now Add User Permission for newly created user using role we also created previously
04:38 - Adding Proxmox integration in Home Assistant using configuration.yaml file.
Proxmox VE
proxmoxve:
host: !secret prox_ip
username: !secret prox_user
password: !secret prox_pass
verify_ssl: false # change if needed based on your configuration
port: 8006 # if it is 8006, you can omit this line
realm: pve
nodes:
node: proxmox
vms: # use if you have virtual machines
201
202
containers: # use if you have containers
203
204
09:59 - Don't forget to declare values for prox_ip, prox_user and prox_pass in your secrets.yaml file. Save changes and verify your configuration before restarting Home Assistant.
Proxmox VE sensor is now configured and you can create automation and notifications base on status of binary sensors.
