Tractive

Tractive is an Austrian company that develops real-time location trackers for pets and other animals using GPS and GSM technology.

The Tractive integration allows you to monitor locations of your pets from within Home Assistant and set up automations based on the information.

Prerequisites

To use the integration you must be a premium tractive client.

Configuration

To add the Tractive device to your Home Assistant instance, use this My button:

Manual configuration steps

If the above My button doesn’t work, you can also perform the following steps manually:

  • Browse to your Home Assistant instance.

  • Go to Settings > Devices & Services.

  • In the bottom right corner, select the Add Integration button.

  • From the list, select Tractive.

  • Follow the instructions on screen to complete the setup.

Important

Due to Tractive API limitations, trackers (pets) that are shared from another account to your account are not visible in Home Assistant. You need to configure all Tractive accounts from which trackers (pets) come from with Home Assistant.
