24-31: Consider clarifying the "Optional" column in the tableThe content and structure of this section are excellent. However, to enhance clarity, consider replacing "no" with "Required" in the "Optional" column of the table. This change would make it immediately clear that both attributes are mandatory.
For example:
| Service data attribute | Optional | Description | | ---------------------- | -------- | ----------- | | `entity_id` | Required | Name(s) of entities to create a snapshot from, e.g., `image.my_image`. | | `filename` | Required | Template of a file name. Variable is `entity_id`, e.g., {% raw %}`/tmp/snapshot_{{ entity_id.name }}`{% endraw %}. |
38-48: LGTM: Excellent YAML example with a suggestionThe YAML example is well-formatted and effectively demonstrates how to use the
snapshotservice in an automation. The use of Liquid templating for the filename is a great way to show dynamic naming capabilities.Suggestion: Consider adding a brief comment explaining the Liquid templating used in the filename. This could help users who are less familiar with Liquid syntax. For example:
action: service: image.snapshot target: entity_id: image.yourimage data: # Uses Liquid templating to create a filename with the current date and time filename: '/tmp/yourimage_{{ now().strftime("%Y%m%d-%H%M%S") }}.jpg'This addition would further enhance the educational value of the example.

17-22: LGTM: Clear introduction to the Services sectionThe new section is well-structured and provides a concise introduction to the image platform services. It clearly states the available service (
snapshot), which aligns with the PR objectives.
33-34: LGTM: Important configuration noteThis note provides crucial information about the
filenamepath requirements and correctly references theallowlist_external_dirsconfiguration. The link to the configuration documentation is helpful for users who need more information.
35-37: LGTM: Clear introduction to the exampleThis introduction effectively sets up the YAML example that follows. It clearly explains the purpose of the example (taking a snapshot and saving it with a timestamped filename), which helps users understand how to apply the
snapshotservice in their own automations.
