simplisafe

The simplisafe integration integrates SimpliSafe home security (V2 and V3) systems into Home Assistant. Multiple SimpliSafe accounts can be accommodated.

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

  • Alarm Control Panel: reports on the current alarm status and can be used to arm and disarm the system.
  • Lock: Reports on Door Locks and can be used to lock and unlock a lock.

Configuration

To enable this component, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
simplisafe:
  accounts:
    - username: user@email.com
      password: password123

{% configuration %} username: description: The email address of a SimpliSafe account. required: true type: string password: description: The password of a SimpliSafe account. required: true type: string code: description: A code to enable or disable the alarm in the frontend. required: false type: string {% endconfiguration %}

Services

Note that the system_id parameter required by the below service calls can be discovered by looking at the device state attributes for the integration's alarm_control_panel entity.

simplisafe.remove_pin

Remove a SimpliSafe PIN (by label or PIN value).

Service Data Attribute Optional Description
system_id no The ID of a SimpliSafe system
label_or_pin no The PIN label or value to remove

simplisafe.set_pin

Events

SIMPLISAFE_EVENT

SIMPLISAFE_EVENT events represent events that appear on the timeline of the SimpliSafe web and mobile apps. When received, they come with event data that contains the following keys:

  • changed_by: the PIN that triggered the event (if appropriate)
  • event_type: the type of event
  • info: a human-friendly string describing the event in more detail
  • sensor_name: the sensor that triggered the event (if appropriate)
  • sensor_serial: the serial number of the sensor that triggered the event (if appropriate)
  • sensor_type: the type of sensor that triggered the event (if appropriate)
  • system_id: the system ID to which the event belongs
  • timestamp: the UTC datetime at which the event was received

For example, when the system is armed by "remote" means (via the web app, etc.), a SIMPLISAFE_EVENT event will fire with the following event data:

{
    "changed_by": "",
    "event_type": "armed_home",
    "info": "System Armed (Home) by Remote Management",
    "sensor_name": "",
    "sensor_serial": "",
    "sensor_type": "remote",
    "system_id": 123456,
    "timestamp": datetime.datetime(2020, 2, 13, 23, 1, 13, tzinfo=<UTC>),
}

event_type, being one of the key fields automations might be built from, can have the following values:

  • camera_motion_detected
  • doorbell_detected
  • entry_detected
  • motion_detected

SIMPLISAFE_NOTIFICATION

SIMPLISAFE_NOTIFICATION events represent system notifications that would appear in the messages section of the SimpliSafe web and mobile apps. When received, they come with event data that contains the following keys:

  • category: The notification category (e.g., error)
  • code: The SimpliSafe code for the notification
  • message: The actual text of the notification
  • timestamp: The UTC timestamp of the notification
