The nest binary sensor platform lets you monitor various states of your Nest devices.

You must have the [Nest component](/components/nest/) configured to use these sensors. The `nest` binary sensor will automatically be setup when you do.

To customize which binary sensors are enabled, you can add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
binary_sensor:
  - platform: nest
    monitored_conditions:
      - 'fan'
      - 'is_using_emergency_heat'

If you leave monitored_conditions blank, all sensors that are available for your devices will be used.

Configuration variables:

  • monitored_conditions array (Optional): States to monitor.
    • online
    • fan
    • is_using_emergency_heat
    • is_locked
    • has_leaf
    • motion_detected
    • person_detected
    • sound_detected

The following conditions are available by device:

  • Nest Thermostat:
    • online
    • fan
    • is_using_emergency_heat
    • is_locked
    • has_leaf
  • Nest Protect:
