Services

IntelliKeep provides the Home Assistant actions below. You can call them from automations, scripts, or Settings → Tools → Actions (Developer tools → Actions in older Home Assistant versions).

Task IDs appear in the attributes of the sensors, in the events and in diagnostics.

Examples​

A weekly task on specific days. The next occurrence is always the next selected day, at the same time, so the schedule doesn't drift when a task is completed late:

action: intellikeep.create_task
data:
name: Take out the garbage
icon: mdi:trash-can-outline
frequency: weekly
weekdays: [mon, wed, fri]
due_date: "2026-11-09T07:00:00"

A task every 10 days, counted from each completion:

action: intellikeep.create_task
data:
name: Clean the coffee machine
frequency: daily
repeat_interval: 10

:::note Legacy custom frequency frequency: custom with custom_days_interval from versions before 2.0 still works. It is stored as frequency: daily with that repeat_interval. :::
