The `Streamlabs Water` integration platform is used to interact with [StreamLabs water monitoring devices](https://www.streamlabswater.com/) in order to retrieve usage information and manage the away mode of the device. The [StreamLabs Water API](https://developer.streamlabswater.com) is used to retrieve daily, monthly, and yearly water usage along with the current away mode.

<div class='note'>
  
Access to the StreamLabs Water API is not free, you must have a StreamPlus™ subscription level that enables API access. Visit [https://streamlabswater.com/subscription](https://streamlabswater.com/subscription) for more information.

There is currently support for the following device types within Home Assistant:

- Binary Sensor
- Sensor

In preparation for using this integration you will need to request an API key following the instructions in the [StreamLabs API Getting Started Section](https://developer.streamlabswater.com/docs/getting-started.html). Be sure to request an API key and not an OAuth token.

## Configuration

Add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
streamlabswater:
  api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
```

{% configuration %}
api_key:
  description: Your api_key for the StreamLabs API.
  required: true
  type: string
location_id:
  description: A specific monitor to use if you have multiple. By default the first found will be used.
  required: false
  type: string
{% endconfiguration %}

## Service `set_away_mode`

You can use the service `streamlabswater.set_away_mode` to set the mode to `home` or `away`. The away mode will only be changed for the configured location.
