@odwide oh…that does not sound good. Ok - thanks. Will see what tech support at Sunsa provides. So - FYSA - I am on hold to install your integration until that happens.
@odwide I heard back from Sunsa Tech Support on the App failing on the API toggle. Their guidance was to “generate a new API” and just keep going. They further passed this issue on to their engineering team.
So - with that solved (sort of) moving to the next effort: With the new API and UserID, and already having HACS installed, followed your install guide (GitHub - r01k/ha_sunsa: Sunsa smart blinds integration for Home Assistant) and whamo! The Sunsa Integration was installed with no issues. I tested several functions: open, close, open a percentage, etc…all worked flawlessly. And in several cases, much faster than the Sunsa Android App.
so - THANKS !
Next - yes, I would now double vote for this suggestion/discussion: (Sunsa Blinds Wands Integration - #10 by odwide).
You just gotta like it when something just works!!
And again - THANKS !
Glad that you got all sorted out! Sunsa support is very responsive. Now, onto setting up your automations and organizing the dashboards.
Ok, now I have more motivation to find out how to make the change. I’ll ask other HA devs about it and report back about feasibility.
I second @dwdonnelly in his request as well. It would be great to be able to use the full functionality of sunsa within HA dashboard (tilting in both directions/percentage). I havent found a good solution for this yet and I think its mainly due to how blinds are defined it HA. I have some automations set up using the service call but my wife likes more granular control so she ends up using the sunsa app. Not a deal breaker but it would be great to have it all within HA.
Maybe there’s custom card out there that allows to close the blinds in any direction. Another user-friendly option could be to create an input number helper as a slider and hook it to an automation to move the blinds directly with it.
