Custom Component: Hubitat

I’m having trouble installing manually. I copied the folder, home assistant recognizes it in the logs, but I can’t add the integration. What could be the issue?

When you say you can’t add it, do you mean that it doesn’t show up in the available list of integrations when you hit the “Add Integration” button?

After a year of not messing with this, I redid my PI and re-installed HA. Trying to install this integration, but don’t know how to do it I guess.

I go to Configuration, Integrations, Click the Add Integration button, search for Hubitat. Says not found.

I don’t know how to access the directory to add manually. If I remember there is something else I need to install, but don’t know what it was. I installed Samba, but don’t know how to access it from there.

The easiest way to add the custom Hubitat integration is to first install HACS. Then use HACS to install the Hubitat integration. Afterward, you should be able to add the integration without issue.

So How do I install HACS?

Here are the instructions for setting up HACS.

Hello, I’m new around here but have been using this integration for around a year now and it has been fantastic. I have found one small issue with some of my Inovelli LZW45 light strips though, when I try to adjust the color from my lovelace dashboard it also sends an off command. Has anyone else encountered something like this before?

Hello, yesterday I got this integration added to home assistant. However, I added the hubitat integration before having added any devices to the hubitat hub. Today I added two z-wave dimmers to the hubitat hub, but they don’t appear in home assistant. What do I need to do to get them to appear in home assistant?

Go to the integrations page and click the “Configure” link on the Hubitat integration. Run through the configuration flow (just click the submit button on every screen). As part of that process, the integration adds any new devices it sees.

@jason0x43 So, when I click the Configure link on the Hubitat integration, I only get a single pop-up window with 4 fields (Hub address, Event server URL (optional), Event server port (optional), and Temperature Units (optional)). So if I don’t change anything and click Submit, then it appears to try and add new items. I get a message that asks me if I want to remove any devices; which only shows a checkbox for the hub itself. If I click Submit on that window then I get another message that seems to indicate that it discovered my new devices, but it says, “The following devices were automatically classified as switches. Select any that should be lights instead.” But there’s nothing to select. No devices are listed. Clicking submit on those windows brings me back to the main integrations page.

Is there something I’m missing on the hubitat that I need to do in order for home assistant to properly classify the devices? They show up as lights in hubitat.

I should probably mention the make and model of the light switches/dimmers. They’re GE/JASCO enbrighten dimmers. I’m forgeting the model number though.

Hi, I’m using this integration for some time now, and it’s awesome!

Just had a small problem last week when upgrading from v0.6.8 to v0.6.18. Everything still works fine except an automation with a Tuya Zigbee scene switch. I added that a few weeks ago, and it worked very nice. But after the update to v0.6.18 I got the following error in the HA log:

Integration 'hubitat' does not support device automation triggers
ImportError: cannot import name 'AutomationTriggerInfo' from 'homeassistant.components.automation'

Also the automation in question was no longer accessible via the HA web UI. When trying to add a new automation for the same device, it no longer showed the available triggers except for the battery level change. After downgrading to v0.6.8 everything worked again.

Any tips on how to solve this?

PS I forgot to mention that there are no problems with other automations that are triggered by Hubitat devices. It works fine with contact sensors from Aeotec and Aqara. What’s strange is that in the configuration for the Tuya scene switch there’s a reference to domain hubitat that’s not there for the other automations in the automations.yaml.

not working with v0.6.18:

    - device_id: xxx
      domain: hubitat
      platform: device
      type: pushed
      subtype: '1'

working:

    - type: opened
      platform: device
      device_id: xxx
      entity_id: binary_sensor.aeotec_door_window_sensor_7_series_contact
      domain: binary_sensor
      id: open

Did you expose the new devices through the Maker API app in Hubitat?

What version of Home Assistant are you running? AutomationTriggerInfo was added in to HA in 2021.10.0, and the integration was updated to use it in 0.6.15.

@jason0x43 I got it working. I realized that, in Hubitat, after I’ve added new devices, I need to ensure the devices are selected in the Maker API to expose them to Home Assistant.

I just got Home Assistant setup and I think I am going to migrate all my devices from Hubitat to Home Assistant. I currently am using this integration. If I remove the integration in Home Assistant, does it also remove all the entities brought over from Hubitat or will I need to go back and remove them all first before pairing my devices to Home Assistant?

Want to see if I can get some input on this. Apologizing ahead of time as my knowledge and lingo on HA is somewhat limited but I am getting there.
New to HA and learning alot so far in the day Ive been using it. I have Hubitat setup with about 20 devices and want to integrate it to HA. So far all Ive done is install HACS and added jason0x43’s Hubitat integration. I assume I did it correct as I do see Hubitat in the integrations. What I do not see is any of my devices. The Maker API is setup in HE, so I dont think that is the problem. One thing I did not see during the Hubitat integreation are the setup steps for adding my HE hub IP, app ID, or API token. The Hubitat integration is pretty much just a tiled window. Tried to fiddle around with the custom repository but i wasnt to sure where to go with that.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance

I believe so.

Could you post a screenshot of the UI you’re seeing?

Sure. See below.

Once you install the custom Hubitat integration via HACS, you then need to go to Home Assistant’s list of Integrations and Add it there.
