What event types does Home Assistant emit?
Short answer: You can list ha event types in Home Assistant by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Home Assistant List HA Event Types action to a workflow, map its 0 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ
Questions about List HA Event Types.
What does the List HA Event Types action do in Home Assistant?
Returns the event types Home Assistant's event bus is configured to emit. Useful for "what events can I subscribe to" introspection at workflow-build time.
What inputs does List HA Event Types require?
List HA Event Types has no required inputs. Sensible defaults are applied if you leave fields blank.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Home Assistant returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Home Assistant returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does List HA Event Types support batch operations?
Run List HA Event Types inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Home Assistant's rate limits.
