Hi,
I recently upgraded my Home Assistant system to the latest version and was excited to hear that there is now built-in support for the Device Tracker for Husqvarna Automower. According to the documentation, the Device Tracker should be created automatically if the mower is equipped with the Automower Connect or Automower Connect Module.
Unfortunately, the device tracker for my Husqvarna Automower 430X is not displayed in my Home Assistant instance 2024.4.1. I have properly connected the mower to my Husqvarna account and followed all the steps to set up the OAuth2 credentials as described in the instructions.
Has anyone had similar experiences or can give me tips on how to get the device tracker working?
I wrote the camera and zone functionality for the custom integration; I do intend to look at moving it to the new internal integration but want to wait until it’s at a steady state and there is an indication that the PR would be accepted.
Do you still intend to do this? It would be much appreciated. Loved that feature and lack the possibility on the “official” integration. Thanks in advance.
Still planning on implementing the camera and zone functionality. I haven’t started on it yet and the old custom integration still works well for me, so no time line at this point. It does look like like the PRs have slowed down, so that helps.
Yes, there isn’t planned much more, except the current PRs. But I’m not sure if the map will be accepted as it’s not a typical PR like just implementing API responses and it’s more complex.
What a pity, the old custom integration stopped working for me some time ago so I had to move over to the official integration. It works fine, but the map provided so nice visibility where the robot is and has been, so I stopped using the husqvarna app. Now I need to go back to the app for that info. I played around using the map component to show the gps coordinates on a map. But the map component is to rough so it does not provide me such a picture of my garden and not found a way around this.
Then the zones provided I feed into statistics, so I could track where it was cut during the day and last week, which I don’t know I can get elsewhere.
I appreciate all the work you put in and understand if not possible to merge into the official integration, but it would be much appreciated if possible. Thanks.
