Tado automation set operation mode to auto

Configuration
1

Hi,

I’m trying to create an automation for my tado which sets the operation mode to ‘auto’ at midnight.
I created the following rule:

- id: ''
  alias: Set Tado to auto at midnight
  description: ''
  trigger:
  - at: 0:00
    platform: time
  condition: []
  action:
  - data:
      mode: auto
      temperature: 15
    entity_id: climate.verwarming
    service: climate.set_temperature

The service climate.set_temperature needs at least one of temperature, target_temp_high, target_temp_low.

And mode isn’t allowed… (Invalid data for call_service at pos 1: extra keys not allowed @ data[‘mode’])

Does anybody know how the data part needs to be to get the tado in auto operation?

Hi,
I am also experimenting with tado and automation scripts.
Since a while the attribute mode changed to hvac_mode, so try this.

Hi,

Tried it but it doesn’t seems to work. My rule is as follows:

- id: '12345'
  alias: Set Tado to auto at midnight
  description: ''
  trigger:
  - at: 0:00
    platform: time
  condition: []
  action:
  - alias: ''
    data:
      hvac_modes: auto
    entity_id: climate.verwarming
    service: climate.set_preset_mode

Solved it. I used to wrong service.

It should be as follows:

- id: '1579165065684'
  alias: Set Tado to auto at midnight
  description: ''
  trigger:
  - at: 0:00
    platform: time
  condition: []
  action:
  - alias: ''
    data:
      hvac_mode: auto
    entity_id: climate.verwarming
    service: climate.set_hvac_mode
