LaMetric Time is a smart clock that can be used to access applications, listen to web radio and display notifications.

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

• Notify

The LaMetric Time can only be accessed by authorized applications. Therefore, each application that wants to access the LaMetric time needs to be registered at the LaMetric Developer web page. Sign Up and login to the developer web page. Click the Create button in the upper right corner, then select Notification App and click Create again. Enter an app name, a description and a redirect URL. Finally, click Save to create the application. For the newly created app you will obtain a client id and a client secret that is required in the following configuration.

# configuration.yaml example
lametric:
  client_id: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxx
  client_secret: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
