Actions

Get device mode capabilities

As the below custom actions Full state and Climate react both require their inputs to match the API requirements precisely, this custom action will provide the capabilities for the device for a certain HVAC mode to help the users on using those actions properly.

Action configuration:

Target

Select the Sensibo climate entity.

HVAC mode

Select the HVAC mode for which you want to get the capabilities.

Proposed action use:

  1. Go to Developer Tools.
  2. Switch to the Actions page.
  3. Use the sensibo.get_device_capabilities action.
  4. Select the climate entity as the target.
  5. Select the hvac_mode from the available list.
  6. Select Perform action to retrieve the available options.
  7. Copy the case-sensitive options as needed to other action calls, automations or scripts.

Set full state

You can send a full state command to Sensibo instead of single commands using the sensibo.full_state action.

Note

All fields are required to be according to Sensibo API specifications and are case-sensitive.

Only provide the fields which are supported by the device.

Action configuration:

Target

Select the Sensibo climate entity.

HVAC mode

Select the HVAC mode for which you want to get the capabilities.

Target temperature

Provide a target temperature if applicable.

Fan mode

Provide a fan mode if applicable.

Swing mode

Provide a swing mode if applicable.

Horizontal swing mode

Provide a horizontal swing mode if applicable.

Light

Provide a setting for the light if applicable.

Tip

Use the Get device mode capabilities action to provide a list of capabilities.

Assume state

An HVAC device often has a manual remote or other means of control which can put Sensibo out of sync with the HVAC device.

Use the sensibo.assume_state action to tell Sensibo if the HVAC device is currently on or off without sending a control to the actual device.

Action configuration:

Target

Select the Sensibo climate entity.

State

Select if the HVAC device is on or off.

Enable Pure Boost

You can configure your Pure Boost settings using the sensibo.enable_pure_boost action.

Note

AC integration and Geo integration needs to be pre-configured via the app before first use.

Action configuration:

Target

Select the Sensibo climate entity.

AC integration

Integrate with a HVAC device.

Geo integration

Integrate with presence.

Indoor air quality

Integrate with indoor air quality.

Outdoor air quality

Integrate with outdoor air quality.

Sensitivity

Set the sensitivity to Normal or Sensitive.

Enable timer

You can enable a timer to turn the HVAC device on or off for a certain time, using the sensibo.enable_timer action that is provided.

Action configuration:

Target

Select the Sensibo climate entity.

Minutes

Number of minutes to turn the device on or off.

Enable Climate React

You can configure your Climate React settings using the sensibo.enable_climate_react action.

Note

Configuring this action also turns Climate React on.

When using the action, the state needs to be set to precisely what Sensibo API expects. The first time, it’s recommended to use the app to configure it.

Action configuration:

Target

Select the Sensibo climate entity.

Threshold high

When the trigger goes above this value.

State high threshold

The full state to configure above the high threshold.

Threshold low

When the trigger goes below this value.

State low threshold

The full state to configure below the low threshold.

Trigger type

The trigger type (temperature, feelsLike, or humidity).

Tip

Use the Get device mode capabilities action to provide a list of capabilities.

Example full state:

on: true
fanLevel: "high"
temperatureUnit: "C"
targetTemperature: 23
mode: "cool"
swing: "fixedBottom"
horizontalSwing: "fixedLeft"
light: "on"

Data fetching and limitations

Data is polledData polling is the process of querying a device or service at regular intervals to check for updates or retrieve data. By defining a custom polling interval, you can control how frequently your system checks for new data, which can help optimize performance and reduce unnecessary network traffic. [Learn more] from the Sensibo API once every minute for all devices.

If pollingData polling is the process of querying a device or service at regular intervals to check for updates or retrieve data. By defining a custom polling interval, you can control how frequently your system checks for new data, which can help optimize performance and reduce unnecessary network traffic. [Learn more] cannot happen because of no connectivity or a malfunctioning API, it will retry a few times before failing. The user can use the homeassistant.update_entity action to manually try again later, in the case the user has solved the connectivity issue.

Troubleshooting

This service is reliant on an internet connection and that the Sensibo API is available. Here are the things you can try before raising an issue:

  • Check that internet is available in your Home Assistant instance.
  • Check that the Sensibo API is available by accessing the Sensibo API page. If you have previously logged in to Sensibo web, you will get a JSON back with the provided information about your account. If not logged in, the API will respond with login_required.
  • Use curl in a terminal on your Home Assistant instance using the same URL as previously opened in the browser. curl https://home.sensibo.com/api/v1/users/me

Specific log entries

Log entry: Device [name of device] not correctly registered with remote on Sensibo cloud.

When setting up a device the first time, a remote needs to be defined for the device in the Sensibo app, either automatically or manually. The device will appear in Home Assistant, but won’t be usable as no HVAC modes can be selected.

Remove the integration

To remove an integration instance from Home Assistant

  1. Go to Settings > Devices & services and select the integration card.
  2. From the list of devices, select the integration instance you want to remove.
  3. Next to the entry, select the three dots menu. Then, select Delete.
