Getting the status of the alarm from Verisure for triggering automation events

[Denis_Neuf]

Hello Guys,

I am a newbie here.

I have a Verisure alarm system and have recently installed a HA.

I have connected the two and get the status in my home screen, but I also want to use the alarm status for triggering automation events.

I cannot manage to get the status of the alarm system in my HA for triggering the events, but I am probably not looking at the right place, as the home screen dashboard features it.

Anyone had the same problem and can point in the right direction?

Thanks!

Denis.

I’m using the Verisure alarm for several automations, you need to track the state.

That is what I am trying to do. Here is the configuration I have in the “automation” part:

But I don’t get the status…

Can you check the state output of the entity in the developer tools? To see if the values are correct?

Thanks. Glenn. It works now. This is great. I am taking baby steps now and will increase the scope.

Cheers.
