About
Paperless-ngx is a built-in integration that connects Home Assistant to a Paperless-ngx document management server. It talks to the instance locally through its API, using an API key and the server URL entered in the UI. It adds sensors for document totals, documents in the inbox, correspondents, document types, total characters and available storage. Further sensors report the status of components such as Celery, the classifier, the database, the index, Redis and the sanity check. An update entity shows the state of the Paperless-ngx software. The SSL certificate check can be turned off for self-signed certificates, and connection settings can be changed later without removing the entry.
