Frequently Asked Questions

To be more helpful, the documentation wants to link the user to a specific page in their instance. However, each Home Assistant instance is hosted at a different url.

All the data is stored in your browser. At no point will any data leave your network. My Home Assistant only redirects you to pages that provide you with information about your instance or help you start an action.
