The vultr binary sensor platform allows you to monitor your Vultr subscription to see if it is powered on or not.

To use this binary sensor, you first have to set up your Vultr hub.

The following examples assume a subscription that has an ID of `123456` and a label of `Web Server`

Minimal configuration.yaml (produces binary_sensor.vultr_web_server):

# Example configuration.yaml entry
binary_sensor:
  - platform: vultr
    subscription: 123456

{% configuration %} subscription: description: The subscription you want to monitor, this can be found in the URL when viewing a server. required: true type: string name: description: The name you want to give this binary sensor. required: false default: "Vultr {subscription label}" type: string {% endconfiguration %}

Full configuration.yaml (produces binary_sensor.totally_awesome_server):

binary_sensor:
  - platform: vultr
    name: totally_awesome_server
    subscription: 12345
