Multiple room zoned cleaning - clicking on multiple rooms in any UI should queue up in the zoned cleaning.
One way to achieve this could be to use input_boolean for each room and then use a string global variable (custom component https://github.com/rogro82/hass-variables) to store the zones to be cleaned. This string can be using in the zone cleaning command.
Another way could be using the scripts and wait_template commands within the scripts. So, if I fire up the script for room A, and then the one for room B -> B will wait for A to finish before starting.
I am having issues that no matter what command Google and IFTTT pass on it only will clean the kitchen. Below is the full set of scripts. I m sure it is easy what i am doing wrong, i know the bottom scripts work to clean the proper zones when i call them via HA.

What I am using (also to avoid an issue with capital/lower case letters) is the following:
{% if 'kĂźche' in raum|lower %}
script.saugen_kueche
{% elif 'fliesen' in raum|lower or 'flieĂen' in raum|lower%}
script.saugen_fliesen
{% elif 'flur' in raum|lower %}
script.saugen_flur
{% elif 'bad' in raum|lower %}
script.saugen_bad
{% elif 'wischen' in raum|lower %}
script.saugen_wohnzimmer_wischen
{% elif 'wohnzimmer' in raum|lower %}
script.saugen_wohnzimmer
{% elif 'teppich' in raum|lower %}
script.saugen_teppich
{% elif 'parkett' in raum|lower %}
script.saugen_parkett
{% elif 'schlafzimmer' in raum|lower %}
script.saugen_schlafzimmer
{% elif 'wohnung' in raum|lower %}
script.saugen_wohnung
{% endif %}
You would not have to check for âtheâ anymore, since it looks for the room name in your sentence. âraum|lowerâ just takes the word that was passed through IFTTT and makes it lower case (in German nouns are capitalized but Google for some reason fails to capitalize them, so to avoid errors and made them all lower).
I think you guys/gals are doing great work, can wait to start playing. One question, has anyone mapped a room and set up a program to go around a rug? I have a few high pile rugs a Rosie gets stuck, so it would be nice to be able to tell her to avoid certain areas.
If you have the new firmware you should in theory be able to create âno-goâ areas. Although this isnât implemented in HA yet, you still should be able to send the command in raw format to the vacuum - but I havenât looked into that at all.
Itâs disappointing that the v1 Mi Robot Vacuum isnât getting the software updates for the no-go areas and the ability to save the map. Especially since they are seemingly very similar in their sensors. I think those 2 abilities, and the ability to set zone names so you can tell it, âHey Google, vacuum the Kitchenâ, would really push this to the next level.
I tried to implement the multiroom selection feature with input_booleans for each room. The following scripts then go through all my rooms and check if the input_boolean for the room is selected. If the boolean is selected a script containing the correct zone coordinates is called:
I still have a problem though, because my xiaomi vacuum has to return to the dock after every zone cleaning. It seems I canât stop it from returning with any command from home assistant and canât get it to start an other zone cleanup, before it is in the dock.
Anyone has any idea how I can improve my scripts or stop the vacuum on the way back to the dock?
I just had some time and tried to build a string containing all the zones I want to clean from the input_booleans and give it to the app_zoned_clean command in one go. I then realized that the list that is given to the command in fact is no string and as it seems it is not allowed to be a string.
It didnât work everytime I tried to use data_template instead of data for the command like this:
- service: vacuum.send_command
# not working!
data_template:
entity_id: vacuum.roborock
command: app_zoned_clean
params: '{{ zones }}'
I think data_template interprets every input paramater as string. Because I cannot use data_template I also canât give it a list via script. Everytime I tried, the vacuum said it started the zoned_cleanup, but it didnât have any zone and just started a full cleanup instead.
Also it seems to be impossible to make one script that checks an input_number and changes the number of times the zone should be cleaned according to it, because we canât use the input_number as a parameter in the list without templates.
Did nobody else encounter this problem or am I just missing something obvious?
Also tried and couldnât use a data_template for that service, I suppose it is a limitation on the service definition.
Still then, as a heads-up, I tried building a string with 7 division coordinates (fixed ones) and it stopped after the 5th, it seems like a limitation, because it ran ok until the 5th and stopped. This would be ok if it wasnât for this limitation, because actually vacuum doesnât go to the dock between different division coordinates.
are you guys having issues with regular cleanup mode in latest firmware? Zone clean up works perfectly but now my xiaomi vac v1 is randomly missing entire areas (sometimes entire room) to clean which has never happened before on older firmware.
Basically, yes. There are different methods described in this thread how to find out all the coordinates that you need - for example by creating a map yourself with the respective coordinate grid or use the app FloleVac to manually set your cursor to the points where you want your area to be - the app then tells you the coordinates (as far as I know)
I had a weird issue where it wouldnât go into a room because it said there was no path - looking at the map it apprarently went by the room when the door was closed but would not update the current map when right in front of the clear path⌠But I got another fm update just last night - maybe this was a bug and got fixed?
So do we/I need to update the app in order to up date FW for my V2 bot, and does this need the API key will be changed and Iâll have to go throw this process to obtain it again ?
Thanks
