<p>Home Assistant keeps track of the states of entities in a state machine. The state machine has very few requirements:</p>
<ul>
<li>Each state is related to an entitiy identified by an entity id. This id is made up of a domain and an object id. For example <code class="highlighter-rouge">light.kitchen_ceiling</code>. You can make up any combination of domain and object id, even overwriting existing states.</li>
<li>Each state is related to an entity identified by an entity id. This id is made up of a domain and an object id. For example <code class="highlighter-rouge">light.kitchen_ceiling</code>. You can make up any combination of domain and object id, even overwriting existing states.</li>
<li>Each state has a primary attribute that describes the state of the entity. In the case of a light this could be for example “on” and “off”. You can store anything you want in the state, as long as it’s a string (will be converted if it’s not).</li>
<li>You can store more information about an entity by setting attributes. Attributes is a dictionary that can contain any data that you want. The only requirement is that it’s JSON serializable, so you’re limited to numbers, strings, dictionaries and lists.</li>
</ul>
