Restriction Card
A Lovelace card that adds configurable restrictions (PIN, confirmation, block, hide) to other Home Assistant dashboard cards.
What is Restriction Card?
Restriction Card is a custom Lovelace card for Home Assistant that adds client-side security layers to other dashboard cards. It allows administrators to restrict access to specific cards using PIN codes, confirmation dialogs, blocking, or hiding based on user, conditions, or time. It solves the problem of controlling dashboard visibility and interactions in shared or multi-user Home Assistant environments.
Home Assistant users and administrators who need to control dashboard card access for different users, such as in family homes, shared spaces, or public displays where certain controls should be restricted.
Developers choose Restriction Card for its deep integration with Home Assistant's Lovelace UI, extensive customization options, and flexible restriction types without requiring server-side modifications. It's maintained as part of the HACS ecosystem and supports complex conditional logic and exemptions.
