Agree. Could a workaround be adding some kind of a virtual device/switch in HA, which mirrors the Water Heater state (on/off)?

Yes, could be possible if you need it instantly.  
If it has some time I can add the water\_heater as device.

So you are my beta tester 🙂  
Please can you already provice a screenshot of your device details from developer tools?

Hi @RonnyW, when I add a switch to my Conbee2 stick on my RPI4 via Phoscon, I see the switch in Home Assistant, but not in your HA app in Homey. Lamps and sensors are fine. Am I missing something. I am using v1.2.2

Hi, it depends on the domain your switch uses. The HA app imports domains `switch.` and `input_boolean.` as switch.

What domain is your switch assigned to?

Thank you for your quick reply, you helped me out. I saw that the switches were still via domain DeConz. I keep puzzling.

I cannot get this to work, i havethe home assistant app installed and that works with normal hass devices, i get these in homey. But the compound devices never show up when i try to add them via ‘device add’ in homey, it lists the other devices like ipad etc, but not the compound custom device.

I loaded the compound component using hacs

In my configuration.yaml i have

Homey:  
testdevice\_compound  
name: hetweer  
capabilities:  
measure\_generic.A: sensor.openweathermap\_weather  
measure\_generic.B:  
sensor.openweathermap\_condition  
capabilitiesTitles:  
measure\_generic.A: weer  
measure\_generic.B: weercond

After reeload and reboot, it does not show up  
Do i something wrong here?

</div>

Did you restart HA after changing the yaml file?  
It needs a HA restart to load the new defiition like other custom sensord/entities.  
After that, the compound should appear in the HA app.

Yes i did, all three variants:  
Reload yaml, restart ha, reboot hardware with ha.  
Still not showing…

</div>

Can you see the entity with domain homey in HAs entity list?  
Also you should write “homey” lowercase. I think the HA check all entities by domain name in lowercase variant and it does not “find” your entity if it’s upper case.

Yes, it is shown as homey.  
But indeed inwill change the homey to lowercase and try again

Edit, its lowercase, but still no show….

For test, i use cloud sensor, maybe only physical sensors work?

Are you sure the whitespaces are correct?  
`testdevice_compound` should be followed by `: `

(Cloud sensors with compound work fine here by the way)

I use Studio Code Server for editing, it informs you on the spot when something’s wrong:

What happens if you check the config here

@Vnet  
Like Peter mentioned, please check the yaml definition and post it here again using the code format:  
 ![grafik](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/0/9011dc483f411e7765e0f6cfbf6fd79d784b4cce.png)

For simple text files you can also use NotePad++.

The definition must keep the 2-spaces-indent.  
You can check your homey entity in developer tools if the capabilities are all listed:

I just tested, it works with this compound:

```auto
testdevice_compound:
  name: hetweer_owm
  capabilities:
    measure_generic.A: sensor.openweathermap_condition
    measure_generic.B: sensor.openweathermap_weather
  capabilitiesTitles:
    measure_generic.A: weer
    measure_generic.B: weercond

```
