Configuration

Connection between Jeedom and Netatmo

Once the plugin has been installed, go to the Plugin Configuration page (“Configuration” icon). You have 2 choices for retrieving data from your favorite stations.

Method n°1: “Hosted application” (simple)

Click on the I authorize the application to access my favorite Netatmo stations button to authorize the NetatmoPublicData hosted application to retrieve your access tokens.

A new window opens, you authorize the Netatmo application, then you’ll see the green icon: ✅. Go on to the next step, “Test the connection”.

Method 2: “Your application” (expert)

Your Jeedom must have external access configured. You need to create a client_id and a client_secret generated from https://dev.netatmo.com.

To do this, create your application (free of charge): https://dev.netatmo.com/apps/createanapp#form

Once you’ve installed the plugin, you’ll need to fill in :

• Client ID: your client ID
• Client secret`: your secret client

Then click on Association Netatmo to link your account.

##Test the link Still on the Configuration page, you have the Status of the link: OK or NOK. Different actions are possible depending on the status:

• NOK you can Test the link which attempts a recovery of the access tokens.
• If OK is selected, you can Unplug to delete previously stored tokens.

In the plugin, the Synchronize button: allows your Jeedom to automatically discover your “favorite” Netatmo stations, yours and those of your neighbors.

FAQ

• What’s the difference between the “Hosted application” method and the “Your application” version?

  In both methods, station data are retrieved directly from Netatmo. (Your Jeedom > Netatmo server).

  • The “Your application” version requires configuration of a Client ID, a Client secret and external access to Jeedom. Data flows only between your Jeedom and Netatmo servers. This is the initial configuration method.
  • The “Hosted application” version relies on a single hosted application to obtain access tokens. My server stores these tokens and automatically renews them for you. No data linked to your stations, just your personal data in transit. The full script will be published on Github soon.

• Can I change my connection method without enabling my stations?

  Yes, you can change your connection method as you like. No impact on your Stations (Equipment) already created and configured in your Scenarios.

• Does the plugin use third-party APIs?

  Yes, the plugin uses Netatmo APIs to retrieve data from your favorite weather stations.
