This is an integration that allows Remootio garage door openers to be used with Home Assistant (HA). There's no official HA Remootio integration (yet...) so it uses HACS (Home Assistant Community Store)
- Home Assistant
- HACS (https://hacs.xyz/) installed
- Remootio device connected to your Wi-Fi, with a fixed IP address
- API access enabled.
- Within the Remootio app, click settings (cog/sproket icon), scroll down to Device software, and click "Websocket API".
- Make a note of the IP address.
- Enable Websocket API and click Copy API Keys. Copy them to somewhere you can paste into HA.
- Within the Remootio app, click settings (cog/sproket icon), scroll down to Network setup and click Wi-Fi to view the IP address.
