Sensibo Pure not exposing Fan Speed to Automations

Third party integrations
1

Hi All,
I think I failed to find some entity in this question. Guidance sought.

The Sensibo integration for use with the Sensibo Pure exposes the fan to set in off/fan only mode and the fan mode of low/high.

When I try to set the fan speed in an automation, it appears that no option for fan speed is exposed. It is obviously exposed for the dashboard, but I am at a loss as to setting the fan speed in an automation.

Attached is the dashboard card, and a list of controls/entities from the integration.

Please show us all the attributes of the climate entity. They will show in the states developer tools. Mine for a sensibo HVAC are

hvac_modes:
  - cool
  - heat
  - dry
  - heat_cool
  - fan_only
  - "off"
min_temp: 10
max_temp: 31
target_temp_step: 1
fan_modes:
  - quiet
  - low
  - medium
  - medium_high
  - high
  - auto
  - strong
swing_modes:
  - stopped
  - fixedtop
  - fixedmiddletop
  - fixedmiddle
  - fixedmiddlebottom
  - fixedbottom
  - rangefull
current_temperature: 20.7
temperature: 21
current_humidity: 51.9
fan_mode: quiet
swing_mode: rangefull
friendly_name: Bedroom
supported_features: 425

How? I have no idea how to list this information.

p.s. in the diagnosics the device shows:

      "fan_modes": [
        "low",
        "high"
      ],```

You automate the fan mode by the action.set_fan_mode action.

See the documentation Climate - Home Assistant

Thanks,
Found it now:

  - action: climate.set_fan_mode
    metadata: {}
    data:
      fan_mode: Low
    target:
      device_id: fa3503.....................41203f9a7

You would be better to use the action, as I said.

Thanks. That is what was generated by the UI.

Sorry, rereading your post you seen to have it as I suggested. As for why, see here Why and how to avoid device_ids in automations and scripts

Thanks,
Only been using HA for a month, so still on the learning curve. Here is the result of removing device_id in one automation.

So, from:

and all done using the UI. Easy.
