The SwitchBot integration allows you to control SwitchBot devices.

Prerequisites

In order to use this integration, it is required to have working Bluetooth set up on the device running Home Assistant. A SwitchBot Hub is not required for this integration.

If you have multiple devices of the same type, you need to get the BTLE MAC address of your device to tell your devices apart. You can find the address for your device using the following steps:

1. Open the SwitchBot app.
2. Open device settings.
3. Click on "Device Info".
4. Write down the BTLE MAC address of your device.

Please note, device names configured in the SwitchBot app are not transferred into Home Assistant.

SwitchBot Entity

There are three attributes available on the SwitchBot entity to give you more information about your device.

• last_run_success: If true if the last action sent to the SwitchBot succeeded. This attribute is useful for error trapping when Bluetooth connectivity is intermittent. If false, see home-assistant.log for specific error messages.
• Switch mode: Specifies the mode of the SwitchBot. If true the the SwitchBot is in Pull/Retract mode for toggle switches otherwise the bot is in momentary switch mode.

SwitchBot Options

• Retry count: How many times to retry sending commands to your SwitchBot devices.

SwitchBot Lock

The integration currently only uses the primary lock state; in dual lock mode, not all things might work properly.

A SwitchBot lock can be set up in Home Assistant in two different ways. You can enter the key id and encryption key yourself, or Home Assistant can import them from your SwitchBot account.

SwitchBot account (recommended)

Using this option you can provide your SwitchBot account login credentials and Home Assistant will import the appropriate encryption key from your account.

{% configuration_basic %} Username: description: SwitchBot account username Password: description: SwitchBot account password {% endconfiguration_basic %}

This integration doesn't support SSO accounts (Login with Google, etc.) only username and password accounts.

Enter the lock encryption key manually

This option is for those that would rather obtain the encryption key themselves, and/or want to know exactly where and how are their account credentials used.

{% configuration_basic %} Key ID: description: Locks' encryption key ID Encryption key: description: Locks' encryption key {% endconfiguration_basic %}

For instructions on how to obtain the locks encryption key, see README in PySwitchbot project.

Error codes and troubleshooting

The SwitchBot integration will automatically discover devices once the Bluetooth integration is enabled and functional.

{% configuration_basic %} "Config flow could not be loaded": description: Possible custom integration conflict, using a different version of PySwitchbot; Try uninstalling the custom integration. "No unconfigured devices found": description: Make sure your devices are powered on and are in range. {% endconfiguration_basic %}
