The `tado` device tracker is using the [Tado Smart Thermostat](https://www.tado.com/) and its support for person presence detection based on smartphone location by geofencing.
|
|
|
|
This tracker uses the Tado API to determine if a mobile device is at home. It tracks all devices in your home that Tado knows about.
|
|
|
|
To use the Tado platform in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry for Tado
|
|
device_tracker:
|
|
- platform: tado
|
|
username: YOUR_USERNAME
|
|
password: YOUR_PASSWORD
|
|
home_id: YOUR_HOME_ID
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **username** (*Required*): The username for your Tado account.
|
|
- **password** (*Required*): The password for your Tado account.
|
|
- **home_id** (*Optional*): The id of your home of which you want to track devices. If provided, the Tado device tracker will tack *all* devices known to Tado associated with this home. See below how to find it.
|
|
|
|
After configuration, your device has to be at home at least once before showing up as *home* or *away*.
|
|
Polling Tado API for presence information will happen at most once every 30 seconds.
|
|
|
|
See the [device tracker component page](/components/device_tracker/) for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked. Beware that the Tado (v2) API does not provide GPS location of devices, only a bearing, therefore Home Assistant only uses `home`/`not-home` status.
|
|
|
|
### {% linkable_title Finding your `home_id` %}
|
|
Find your `home_id` by browsing to `https://my.tado.com/api/v2/me?username=YOUR_USERNAME&password=YOUR_PASSWORD`. There you'll see something like the following:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"name": "Mark",
|
|
"email": "your@email.tld",
|
|
"username": "your@email.tld",
|
|
"homes": [
|
|
{
|
|
"id": 12345,
|
|
"name": "Home Sweet Home"
|
|
}
|
|
],
|
|
"locale": "en_US",
|
|
"mobileDevices": []
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In this example `12345` is the `home_id` you'll need to configure.
