    Home Assistant

    Hi,

    1) I thought that once the Shelly Blu Button1 has been integrated in the Shelly App, that Home Assistant would find it as well. I believe I am wrong as it does not show in HA.

    Is it the case, that I need some Bluetooth device and have to install BTHome, so that HA can directly work with the Blu Button? If yes, what BT device would I need as I run HA in a Virtualbox guest machine on a Windows 10 host?

    2) Or, what I also would like to try: Can I send a http request or http command (whatever the correct term is) from a Shelly script to HA that would trigger an automation. If so, code examples or directions would help a lot.

    Btw, I also ordered some Blu Door/Window devices, that I would need to integrate into Home Assistant as well.
    Within my Shelly setup I got the Blu Button to work via a script (but HA integeration is where I struggle).

    Thanks

    Do you have an other Shelly device like Shelly Plus 1 or so?

    Than you can use this as an BLE Gateway for ha.

    Open Shelly integration in Ha and follow pictures. After that button should be available as Trigger

    Thank you, Devil!

    This did the trick. The Shelly Blu Button was found in HA afterwards (maybe after a HA restart) and I could use all the different button presses.

    Super Hilfe!
    Danke!

    Thanks for all the good advice.

    Despite following the instructions in the video and the post in the shelly forum i’m still not able to get it working.

    All shelly blue devices (door/window) work fine in the shelly app but in HA they are not visible. When trying to add the integration BTHome it says that “there are no devices found in the network”. What am I getting wrong?
