Combine differents stats of entity settings

[joaopedros2]

How can I merge these two configs?

I have different 'entity_settings' for 'admin_settings' and 'non_admin_settings'.

kiosk_mode:
  non_admin_settings:
    hide_header: true
    hide_sidebar: true
    ignore_entity_settings: false
  entity_settings:
    - entity:
        input_boolean.kiosk_mode: 'on'
      hide_header: true
      hide_sidebar: true
    - entity:
        input_boolean.kiosk_mode: 'off'
      hide_header: false
      hide_sidebar: false


kiosk_mode:
  admin_settings:
    hide_header: true
    hide_sidebar: false
    ignore_entity_settings: false
  entity_settings:
    - entity:
        input_boolean.kiosk_mode: 'on'
      hide_header: true
      hide_sidebar: false
    - entity:
        input_boolean.kiosk_mode: 'off'
      hide_header: false
      hide_sidebar: false

Simplified idea:

input_boolean.kiosk_mode: 'on'
	admin
		hide = header 
	non_admin
		hide = header, sidebar

input_boolean.kiosk_mode: 'off'
	admin
		hide = nothing 
	non_admin
		hide = nothing

Hi @joaopedros2,

entity_settings is one of the Conditional Configurations, and all Conditional Configurations are placed in the root, they cannot be placed inside any of the others.

As entity_settings overrides any other Conditional Configuration, what you are searching could be simpler if you use the boolean entity to show things, not to hide them:

kiosk_mode:
  admin_settings:
    hide_header: true
  non_admin_settings:
    hide_header: true
    hide_sidebar: true
  entity_settings:
    input_boolean.disable_kiosk_mode: 'on'
  hide_header: false
  hide_sidebar: false

I ended up using it like this:

kiosk_mode:
  admin_settings:
    hide_header: true
    hide_sidebar: false
    ignore_entity_settings: false
  non_admin_settings:
    hide_header: true
    hide_sidebar: true
    ignore_entity_settings: false
  entity_settings:
    - entity:
        input_boolean.kiosk_mode: 'on'
      hide_header: true
      hide_sidebar: false
    - entity:
        input_boolean.kiosk_mode: 'off'
      hide_header: false
      hide_sidebar: false

You can remove the falsy options from admin_settings and non_admin_settings (they are false by default)
