The **World Air Quality Index (WAQI)** {% term integration %} will query [World Air Quality Index](https://aqicn.org/city/beijing/) service to check AQI value for a specific set of locations. The resulting indexes will be added to the Home Assistant as sensor outputs.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
This sensor requires an API token. Please obtain one at [AQICN API token](https://aqicn.org/data-platform/token/#/).
|
|
|
|
{% include integrations/config_flow.md %}
|
|
|
|
The value reported is an overall AQ index for the location. The values of the index can be interpreted as following:
|
|
|
|
| AQI | Status | Description |
|
|
|-----------|:----------------------------------:|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| 0 - 50 | **Good** | Air quality is considered satisfactory, and air pollution poses little or no risk |
|
|
| 51 - 100 | **Moderate** | Air quality is acceptable; however, for some pollutants there may be a moderate health concern for a very small number of people who are unusually sensitive to air pollution |
|
|
| 101 - 150 | **Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups** | Members of sensitive groups may experience health effects. The general public is not likely to be affected |
|
|
| 151 - 200 | **Unhealthy** | Everyone may begin to experience health effects; members of sensitive groups may experience more serious health effects |
|
|
| 201 - 300 | **Very unhealthy** | Health warnings of emergency conditions. The entire population is more likely to be affected |
|
|
| 301+ | **Hazardous** | Health alert: everyone may experience more serious health effects
|
