Netatmo away present mode not working since last update

Configuration
21

Hello,

I have a netatmo relay connected to a netatmo thermostat (i don’t have any valves) but there is no preset_mode attribute in my climate (see below). From the netatmo app i have the possibility to choose between schedule, manual boost, comfort and away modes but i can’t control this from home assistant. How to fix this please ? Thanks.

`hvac_modes:

  • ‘off’
  • heat
    min_temp: 5
    max_temp: 30
    current_temperature: 18.8
    temperature: 19
    hvac_action: idle
    friendly_name: Netatmo
    supported_features: 1`

Try to enable the thermostat by setting it to auto mode. According to your message, it seems that it is off. As far as I remember states/attributes list displays less items when thermostat is off.

Hello, have you found a way to fix it ? Away mode is still not working.

It is been working for quite a long time. Do see below the way to set it with yaml (service):

service: climate.set_preset_mode
data:
  preset_mode: away
target:
  entity_id: climate.netatmo_thermostat_entity

You can also set it in the dashboard, as long as you have the thermostat entity displayed somewhere.

Hope it helps!

Thanks for your answer. It worked with your example. I had to set up a retry. It sometimes works with some latency.

Oh, that sounds like a massive drawback of the Netatmo integration. Not sure I want to install SSL certificate and do a reverse-proxy thingy just for the thermostat. I wish the documentation went a bit deeper into details, though, just in case I feel brave one day.

EDIT : Why is it not an issue with the weather station?
And is there a workaround? Like using an automation to force a Netatmo thermostat update every 15 min or so?
