I've got a number of switches in HA but only a few of them show up in MyServer6.  For example, here is a virtual switch(in yaml) I created that allows me to keep track of which source is currently selected in MyServer6 which does not show up in MyServer6.  I'm using the input_text.theater_source value to store the current source and the switch is used to toggle between the sources:
Code:
switch:   - platform: template     switches:       theater_source_atv:         value_template: "{{ is_state('input_text.theater_source', 'atv') }}"         turn_on:           service: input_text.set_value           target:             entity_id: input_text.theater_source           data:             value: "atv"         turn_off:           service: input_text.set_value           target:             entity_id: input_text.theater_source           data:             value: "poweroff"       theater_source_plex:         value_template: "{{ is_state('input_text.theater_source', 'plex') }}"         turn_on:           service: input_text.set_value           target:             entity_id: input_text.theater_source           data:             value: "plex"         turn_off:           service: input_text.set_value           target:             entity_id: input_text.theater_source           data:             value: "poweroff"

It would be nice if these types of switches showed up in MyServer6 so we could call the turn_on/turn_off services on them.  But that brings me to my next question/request.  Is it possible today to actually call those services for switch entities?  I have some Tasmota outlets that show up in MyServer6 as a sensor but they also have a switch entity.  Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out how to actually call the services on the switch.

From the HAGateway driver run the SendDevices commands. That will email a copy of your current device registry to me. I can then import your registries here and find what I need to add to the driver to get all the devices.

Dave,

I have sent my devices registry, I have a number of switches that aren't being imported.

Also I was wondering if scenes will be supported in the future?

Thanks

I did get a registry the other day. Have not been able to work on it yet. Goal is to get to it over the weekend.  I can look for scenes and grab them but I'll have to do some research on how Home Assistant works with them.
