Background Combos (2 in one) about ha-google-photos HOT 3 CLOSED

With regards to the first question, that's hopefully coming very soon, coincidentally I created a PR today over at the lovelace-wallpanel repository doing exactly that!

For the second question, that's a bit more tricky since searching multiple albums is not natively supported by the Google Photos api. I do plan to build some functionality to use more of the advanced search functionality that's available.

Oh awesome.

Ya, Google needs to loosen up on your own damn photos. Among other things. Like make it easy to integrate into HA. But ya, photos/albums is strangely hard to use the way you'd actually want to, even within their own ecosystem.

The maintainer of the lovelace-wallpanel extension has merged my changes, so from version 4.8 onwards of that extension you can combine both!

Example

wallpanel:
  enabled: true
  hide_toolbar: true
  hide_sidebar: true
  fullscreen: true
  image_url: media-entity://camera.google_photos_favorites_media
