The `mqtt` vacuum component allows you to control your MQTT-enabled vacuum.
To add your MQTT vacuum to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
vacuum:
- platform: mqtt
name: "MQTT Vacuum"
supported_features:
- turn_on
- turn_off
- pause
- stop
- return_home
- battery
- status
- locate
- clean_spot
- fan_speed
- send_command
command_topic: "vacuum/command"
battery_level_topic: "vacuum/state"
battery_level_template: "{{ value_json.battery_level }}"
charging_topic: "vacuum/state"
charging_template: "{{ value_json.charging }}"
cleaning_topic: "vacuum/state"
cleaning_template: "{{ value_json.cleaning }}"
docked_topic: "vacuum/state"
docked_template: "{{ value_json.docked }}"
fan_speed_topic: "vacuum/state"
fan_speed_template: "{{ value_json.fan_speed }}"
set_fan_speed_topic: "vacuum/set_fan_speed"
fan_speed_list:
- min
- medium
- high
- max
send_command_topic: 'vacuum/send_command'
```

### {% linkable_title Default MQTT Protocol %}
The above configuration for this component expects an MQTT protocol like the following.
#### Basic Commands
MQTT topic: `vacuum/command`
Possible MQTT payloads:
- `turn_on` - Begin cleaning
- `turn_off` - Turn the Vacuum off
- `return_to_base` - Return to base/dock
- `stop` - Stop the Vacuum
- `clean_spot` - Initialize a spot cleaning cycle
- `locate` - Locate the vacuum (typically by playing a song)
- `start_pause` - Toggle the vacuum between cleaning and stopping
#### Set Fan Speed
MQTT topic: `vacuum/set_fan_speed`
Possible MQTT payloads:
- `min` - Minimum fan speed
- `medium` - Medium fan speed
- `high` - High fan speed
- `max` - Max fan speed
#### Send Custom Command
MQTT topic: `vacuum/send_command`
MQTT payload for `send_command` can be an arbitrary value handled by the vacuum's MQTT-enabled firmware.
#### Status/Sensor Updates
MQTT topic: `vacuum/state`
MQTT payload:
```json
{
"battery_level": 61,
"docked": true,
"cleaning": false,
"charging": true,
"fan_speed": "off"
}
```
