Purpose
This blueprint auto-updates the status of your Wyze Robot Vacuum (and probably vacuums).
Picture of the Vacuum. Check to confirm you have this one.
Why
The Wyze Robot Vacuum can be integrated into Home Assistant with the GitHub - romedtino/simple-wyze-vac: Home Assistant Custom Component for Wyze Vacuum. Thank you @romedtino for your work. But due to abuse/overuse of the undocumented API the developers of the various Wyze integrations had to remove the auto-polling mechanisms (allows you to see current state in Home Assistant). See here if you want to read more. Because of this we as a community using the unofficial API must be careful about over using the status update polling.
This Blueprint allows you to enable auto-polling but in a more courteous manner by limiting the status updates to only as often as you need. I’ve included suggested default times, if you think a different default would be better please let me know.
Blueprint
Pre-requisite: You must have the Wyze Robot Vacuum integration installed. I only tested this with GitHub - romedtino/simple-wyze-vac: Home Assistant Custom Component for Wyze Vacuum
