Question

Hi, I am a little confused because the entity "screen" (not sure what the proper word is? shows the battery level of the robot

But when looking at the states in dev settings, or searching out entities the battery level does not appear anywhere as an entity which can be used in dashboards/automations etc.

Any ideas how I can obtain the battery level as an entity?

Additional information

Currently the battery level is available as attribute in the vacuum entity. Automation can trigger also on attributes.

It's also possible to create a battery sensor entity, but until August I'm on vacation so please be patient

Also, you can use a template sensor in HA to extract the attribute and create a separate sensor for this goal if need be.
