The rachio platform allows you to control your Rachio irrigation system.

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

They will be automatically added if the Rachio integration integration is loaded.

Getting your Rachio API Key

  1. Log in at https://app.rach.io/.
  2. Click the "Account Settings" menu item at the bottom of the left sidebar
  3. Click "Get API Key"
  4. Copy the API key from the dialog that opens.

Configuration

To add this platform to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
rachio:
  api_key: YOUR_API_KEY

{% configuration %} api_key: description: The API key for the Rachio account. required: true type: string hass_url_override: description: If your instance is unaware of its actual web location (base_url). required: false type: string manual_run_mins: description: For how long, in minutes, to turn on a station when the switch is enabled. required: false default: 10 type: integer {% endconfiguration %}

Water-saving suggestion:
Set manual_run_mins to a high maximum failsafe value when using scripts to control zones. If something goes wrong with your script, Home Assistant, or you hit the Rachio API rate limit of 1700 calls per day, the controller will still turn off the zone after this amount of time.

iFrame

If you would like to see and control more detailed zone information, create an iFrame that renders the Rachio web app.

panel_iframe:
  rachio:
    title: Rachio
    url: "https://app.rach.io"
    icon: mdi:water-pump

Switch

The rachio switch platform allows you to toggle zones connected to your Rachio irrigation system on and off.

Once configured, a switch will be added for every zone that is enabled on every controller in the account provided, as well as a switch to toggle each controller's standby mode.

Examples

In this section, you find some real-life examples of how to use this switch.
