{% linkable_title Retrieving the Access Token %}

This token (32 hexadecimal characters) is required for the Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum and Xiaomi Philips Lights. The Xiaomi Gateway uses another security method and requires a `key` (16 alphanumeric chars), which can be obtained easily via a hidden menu item at the Mi-Home app.

{% linkable_title Windows and Android %}

Follow the pairing process using your phone and Mi-Home app. You will be able to retrieve the token from a SQLite file inside your phone.

Before you begin you need to install libffi-dev and libssl-dev by running the command below. This is needed for python-mirobo to be installed correctly.

$ sudo apt-get install libffi-dev libssl-dev

If your Home Assistant installation is running in a Virtualenv, make sure you activate it by running the commands below.

$ sudo su -s /bin/bash homeassistant
$ source /srv/homeassistant/bin/activate

To fetch the token follow these instructions depending on your mobile phone platform.

1. Configure the robot with the Mi-Home app.
2. Download and extract the MiToolKit.zip.
3. Enable developer mode and USB debugging on the Android phone and plug it into the computer.
4. Change the MiToolKit language to English if you need to.
5. Click "Extract Token"
6. On the phone, you must confirm the backup. DO NOT enter any password and press the button to make the backup.
7. Once you have confirmed the backup the token extraction will begin, it should appear in the MiToolKit shortly.

{% linkable_title Linux and Android (rooted!) %}

Follow the pairing process using your phone and Mi-Home app. You will be able to retrieve the token from a SQLite file inside your phone.

Before you begin you need to install libffi-dev and libssl-dev by running the command below. This is needed for python-mirobo to be installed correctly.

$ sudo apt-get install libffi-dev libssl-dev

If your Home Assistant installation is running in a Virtualenv, make sure you activate it by running the commands below.

$ sudo su -s /bin/bash homeassistant
$ source /srv/homeassistant/bin/activate

To fetch the token follow these instructions depending on your mobile phone platform.

1. Configure the robot with the Mi-Home app.
2. Enable developer mode, USB debugging and root permission only for ADB on the Android phone and plug it into the computer.
3. Get ADB f.e. apt-get install android-tools-adb
4. adb devices should list your device
5. adb root (does work for development builds only: ones with ro.debuggable=1)
6. adb shell
7. echo "select name,localIP,token from devicerecord;" | sqlite3 /data/data/com.xiaomi.smarthome/databases/miio2.db returns a list of all registered devices including IP address and token.

{% linkable_title iOS %}

1. Configure the robot with the Mi-Home app.
2. Using iTunes, create an unencrypted backup of your iPhone.
3. Install iBackup Viewer, open it, and open your backup.
4. Open the "Raw Data" module.
5. Navigate to com.xiaomi.mihome.
6. Search for a file that looks like this: 123456789_mihome.sqlite – note that _mihome.sqlite is not the correct file.
7. Save this file to your filesystem.
8. Install DB Browser for SQLite.
9. Open DB Browser and load the .sqlite file you saved from your backup.
10. Click on the Execute SQL tab.
11. Input and run this query: SELECT ZTOKEN FROM ZDEVICE WHERE ZNAME = "Mi Robot Vacuum"
12. Copy the returned 32-digit hexadecimal string to your clipboard.
13. Open Terminal and execute this command: echo '0: <YOUR HEXADECIMAL STRING>' | xxd -r -p | openssl enc -d -aes-128-ecb -nopad -nosalt -K 00000000000000000000000000000000
14. Use the resulting string as your token.
