## Updating Dashboard via Code
55
56
Lovelace is in storage mode, so the REST API (`/api/lovelace/config`) returns 404. Use the WebSocket API instead:
57
58
```python
59
import asyncio, json, websockets
60
61
async def push_lovelace(token, config):
62
async with websockets.connect("ws://192.168.2.129:8123/api/websocket") as ws:
63
await ws.recv() # auth_required
64
await ws.send(json.dumps({"type": "auth", "access_token": token}))
65
await ws.recv() # auth_ok
66
await ws.send(json.dumps({"id": 1, "type": "lovelace/config/save", "config": config}))
67
print(await ws.recv())
68
69
TOKEN = "eyJhbGci..." # see API token above
70
asyncio.run(push_lovelace(TOKEN, your_config_dict))
71
```
