The `garadget` cover platform lets you control [Garadget](http://www.garadget.com/) garage door futurizers through Home Assistant.
To enable Garadget Covers in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
cover:
platform: garadget
covers:
190028001947343412342341:
username: UseYourLogin@garadget.com
password: abc123
name: Left Garage Door
4c003f001151353432134214:
access_token: df4cc785ff818f2b01396c44142342fccdef
```
Configuration variables:
- **covers** array (*Required*): List of your doors.
- **device** (*Required*): This is the device id from your Garadget portal.
- Either:
- **username** (*Required*): Your Garadget account username.
- **password** (*Required*): Your Garadget account password.
- Or:
- **access_token** (*Required*): A generated access_token from your garadget account
- **name** (*Optional*): Name to use in the Frontend, will use name configured in Garadget otherwise.
If provided, the **access_token** will be used, otherwise the **username** and **password** will be used to automatically generate an access token at start time.
**Example with more detail:**

```
Some of the Garadget sensors can create a lot of clutter in the logbook. Use this section of code in your `configuration.yaml` to exclude those entries.
```yaml
logbook:
exclude:
entities:
- sensor.garage_door_time_in_state
- sensor.garage_door_wifi_signal_strength
```
