Home Assistant Auto-Login Setup Guide
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
There are 3 ways to keep the dashboard logged in:
|
|
|
|
METHOD 1: Long-Lived Access Token (RECOMMENDED)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
This is the easiest and most secure method.
|
|
|
|
1. In Home Assistant (from another device):
|
|
- Click your profile icon (bottom left)
|
|
- Scroll down to "Long-Lived Access Tokens"
|
|
- Click "Create Token"
|
|
- Name it: "Dashboard Kiosk"
|
|
- Copy the token (you'll only see it once!)
|
|
|
|
2. On this computer, run:
|
|
~/scripts/configure-ha-token.sh
|
|
|
|
Then paste the token when prompted.
|
|
|
|
3. Restart the dashboard:
|
|
~/scripts/restart-dashboard.sh
|
|
|
|
The dashboard will now auto-login without showing the login screen!
|
|
|
|
|
|
METHOD 2: Trusted Networks
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
Configure Home Assistant to trust this computer's IP address.
|
|
|
|
1. Get this computer's IP:
|
|
hostname -I
|
|
|
|
2. In Home Assistant, edit configuration.yaml:
|
|
Add this section (or update existing):
|
|
|
|
http:
|
|
trusted_proxies:
|
|
- 192.168.68.193 # Replace with your IP
|
|
use_x_forwarded_for: true
|
|
ip_ban_enabled: true
|
|
login_attempts_threshold: 5
|
|
|
|
OR use the UI:
|
|
- Settings > People & Zones > Trusted Networks
|
|
- Add this computer's IP address
|
|
|
|
3. Restart Home Assistant
|
|
|
|
4. The dashboard should now auto-login from this IP
|
|
|
|
|
|
METHOD 3: Firefox Saved Credentials
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
Let Firefox remember your login.
|
|
|
|
1. Stop the dashboard:
|
|
~/scripts/stop-dashboard.sh
|
|
|
|
2. Launch Firefox normally (not kiosk):
|
|
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000
|
|
export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0
|
|
MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 firefox http://homeassistant.local:8123
|
|
|
|
3. Log in manually once
|
|
4. Firefox will ask to save password - click "Save"
|
|
5. Close Firefox
|
|
6. Restart the dashboard:
|
|
~/scripts/restart-dashboard.sh
|
|
|
|
Firefox should now auto-fill your credentials.
|
|
|
|
|
|
RECOMMENDED: Use Method 1 (Access Token)
|
|
It's the most reliable and doesn't require Firefox to save passwords.
