# Netatmo Binding

The Netatmo binding integrates the following Netatmo products:

  • Personal Weather Station. Reports temperature, humidity, air pressure, carbon dioxide concentration in the air, as well as the ambient noise level.
  • Thermostat. Reports ambient temperature, allow to check target temperature, consult and change furnace heating status.
  • Indoor Camera / Welcome. Reports last event and persons at home, consult picture and video from event/camera.
  • Siren
  • Outdoor Camera / Presence. Reports last event, consult picture and video from event/camera.
  • Doorbell
  • Smoke Detector
  • Smart Door Sensor
  • Carbon Monoxide Detector

See https://www.netatmo.com/ (opens new window) for details on their product.

# Binding Configuration

The binding requires you to register an Application with Netatmo Connect at https://dev.netatmo.com/ (opens new window) - this will get you a set of Client ID and Client Secret parameters to be used by your configuration.

# Create Netatmo Application

Follow instructions under:

  1. Setting Up Your Account
  2. Registering Your Application
  3. Setting Redirect URI and webhook URI can be skipped, these will be provided by the binding.

Variables needed for the setup of the binding are:

The binding has the following configuration options:

Parameter Type Description
readFriends Boolean Enables or disables the discovery of guest weather stations.

# Netatmo Account (Bridge) Configuration

You will have to create at first a bridge to handle communication with your Netatmo Application.

The Account bridge has the following configuration elements:

Parameter Type Required Description
clientId String Yes Client ID provided for the application you created on http://dev.netatmo.com/createapp (opens new window)
clientSecret String Yes Client Secret provided for the application you created
webHookUrl String No Protocol, public IP and port to access openHAB server from Internet
webHookPostfix String No String appended to the generated webhook address (should start with "/")
reconnectInterval Number No The reconnection interval to Netatmo API (in s)

Supported channels for the Account bridge thing:

Channel Group Channel Id Item Type Description
monitoring request-count Number Number of requests transmitted to Netatmo API during the last hour

# Configure the Bridge

  1. Complete the Netatmo Application Registration if you have not already done so, see above.
  2. Make sure you have your Client ID and Client Secret identities available.
  3. Add a new "Netatmo Account" thing. Choose new Id for the account, unless you like the generated one, put in the Client ID and Client Secret from the Netatmo Connect Application registration in their respective fields of the bridge configuration. Save the bridge.
  4. The bridge thing will go OFFLINE / CONFIGURATION_ERROR - this is fine. You have to authorize this bridge with Netatmo Connect.
  5. Go to the authorization page of your server. http://<your openHAB address>:8080/netatmo/connect/<_CLIENT_ID_>. Your newly added bridge should be listed there (no need for you to expose your openHAB server outside your local network for this).
  6. Press the "Authorize Thing" button. This will take you either to the login page of Netatmo Connect or directly to the authorization screen. Login and/or authorize the application. You will be returned and the entry should go green.
  7. The bridge will go ONLINE.

Now that you have got your bridge ONLINE you can now start a scan with the binding to auto discover your things.

Starting on 2023/04/17 - Netatmo API requires an update of the refreshToken provided by the oAuth mechanism every three hours. Once authentication process has been done, current refreshToken is stored in /OPENHAB_USERDATA/netatmo folder.

# Webhook

Netatmo servers can send push notifications to the Netatmo Binding by using a callback URL. The webhook URL is setup at Netatmo Account level using "Webhook Address" parameter. You will define here public way to access your openHAB server:

http(s)://xx.yy.zz.ww:443

Your Netatmo App will be configured automatically by the bridge to the endpoint:

http(s)://xx.yy.zz.ww:443/netatmo/webhook/<_CLIENT_ID_><webHookPostfix>

Please be aware of Netatmo own limits regarding webhook usage that lead to a 24h ban-time when webhook does not answer 5 times.

NB: Allowed ports for webhooks are 80, 88, 443 and 9443.

# Configure Things

The easiest way to retrieve the IDs for all the devices and modules is to use the console command openhab:netatmo showIds. It shows the hierarchy of all the devices and modules including their IDs. This can help to define all your things in a configuration file.

Another way to get the IDs is to use the developer documentation on the netatmo site:

The IDs for the modules can be extracted from the developer documentation on the netatmo site. First login with your user. Then some examples of the documentation contain the real results of your weather station. In order to try the examples, you need the device_id of your Netatmo station. You can find it in the configuration menu of the app (android or apple). Get the IDs of your devices (indoor, outdoor, rain gauge) here (opens new window).

main_device is the ID of the "main device", the indoor sensor. This is equal to the MAC address of the Netatmo.

The other modules you can recognize by "module_name" and then note the "_id" which you need later.

Another way to get the IDs is to calculate them:

You have to calculate the ID for the outside module as follows: (it cannot be read from the app)

  • if the first serial character is "h": start with "02"
  • if the first serial character is "i": start with "03"
  • if the first serial character is "j": start with "04"
  • if the first serial character is "k": start with "05"

append ":00:00:",

split the rest into three parts of two characters and append with a colon as delimiter.

For example your serial number "h00bcdc" should end up as "02:00:00:00:bc:dc".

# Discovery

If you did not manually create things in the *.things file, the Netatmo Binding is able to discover automatically all depending modules and devices.

# Welcome, Presence and Doorbell Cameras

Warnings:

  • The URL of the live snapshot is a fixed URL so the value of the channel cameraLivePictureUrl / welcomeCameraLivePictureUrl will never be updated once first set by the binding. So to get a refreshed picture, you need to use the refresh parameter in your sitemap image element.

# Rule Actions

Multiple actions are supported by this binding. In classic rules these are accessible as shown in this example (adjust getActions with your ThingId):

Example

 val actions = getActions("netatmo","netatmo:room:myaccount:myhome:livingroom")
 if(null === actions) {
        logInfo("actions", "Actions not found, check thing ID")
        return
 }

# setThermRoomTempSetpoint(temp,endtime)

Sends a temperature setpoint (and switch to manual mode) to the thermostat for a room with an end time.

Parameters:

Name Description
temp The temperature setpoint.
endtime Time the setpoint should end (Local Unix time in seconds).

Example:

actions.setThermRoomTempSetpoint(19.0, 1654387205)

# setThermRoomModeSetpoint(mode,endtime)

Sends a mode to the thermostat for a room with an optional end time.

Parameters:

Name Description
mode The mode to set: MANUAL, MAX or HOME.
endtime Time the setpoint should end (Local Unix time in seconds).

Example:

actions.setThermRoomModeSetpoint("MANUAL", 1654387205)
actions.setThermRoomModeSetpoint("HOME", null)
