For example, if you add a pasta recipe, ingredients like “500g pasta” and “2 tomatoes” will appear in your “Shopping list”. You can check these items off as you shop, but you cannot modify the label.
In contrast, in your “Additional purchases” list, you can freely add items like “Kitchen towels” or “Dish soap”, and modify or remove them as needed.
Button entities
The clear shopping list button entity allows you to clear both the shopping list and additional purchases list, mirroring the functionality available in the Cookidoo app. When triggered, this button will remove all items from both lists.
This button entity will appear automatically in your Home Assistant instance after adding the integration. You can use it in automations or add it to your dashboard using the Button card.

Known Limitations
As Cookidoo cannot share shopping lists between accounts and everybody interacting with it uses the same credentials, make sure you protect your credentials accordingly. All users of your Home Assistant instance will have access to the same Cookidoo account.
The Home Assistant to-do list interface allows both renaming items and changing their state. However, for the “Shopping list”, only state changes (checking/unchecking items) are supported. Any attempts to rename items will not be saved.
Data updates
The Cookidoo integration fetches data from the device every 90 seconds by default.
