Expose Sensibo Sensors

Configuration
1

First off, I’m totally new to HASS.io so I apologize in advance for mistakes.

I am trying to figure out how to expose the temperature and humidity sensors from the Sensibo just like the ecobee sensors show up.

Is there something I need to do to use the different sensors of the Sensibo? The Sensibo doesn’t show on devices and the sensors do not show anywhere. It’s probably simple but I can’t seem to figure it out.

Thank you!

Sensibo has a complete climate integration, see here https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/sensibo/. Once you use a climate card in lovelace you will see the temperature.

The humidity and temperature are attributes, and if you want them as sensors you need to create a template sensor. Here are the attirbutes for one of mine:

hvac_modes:
  - dry
  - heat_cool
  - heat
  - fan_only
  - cool
  - 'off'
current_temperature: 22.3
min_temp: 16
max_temp: 31
target_temp_step: 1
temperature: 18
current_humidity: 57.4
fan_mode: auto
fan_modes:
  - quiet
  - low
  - medium
  - medium_high
  - high
  - auto
swing_mode: stopped
swing_modes:
  - stopped
  - fixedTop
  - fixedMiddleTop
  - fixedMiddle
  - fixedMiddleBottom
  - fixedBottom
  - rangeFull
battery: null
friendly_name: Bedroom
supported_features: 41

Thank you so much for your response!

I had already added the climate card in Lovelace and it works to make changes to the system so I’m good there.

How or where did you find those attributes and do you have links to explain how to make template sensors? I’m sorry for the newb questions, it’s just hard to find things that are specific for Sensibo.

Thanks again!

If you go to the developer-tools page then states page you can find every entity and its attributes. https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/tools/dev-tools/

As for template sensors, see https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/template/

This is what I added to my configuration.yaml file in order to add Sensibo Humidity as a sensor:

template:
   - sensor:
      - name: <name>  
        state: "{{ state_attr('<device id>', 'current_humidity') }}"
        unit_of_measurement: '%'
        icon: mdi:water-percent

I can now use it for automations.
I use it to turn the humidifier Off once the the humidity sensor shows above 90%.
