Home Assistant Tapo Integration

This is a custom integration to control Tapo devices from home assistant.

The core of the integration is provided by plugp100 python library based on the work of @K4CZP3R.

Please help me to complete the new roadmap

Warnings

Tapo protocol

Tapo is updating its devices with a new firmware which use a new protocol called KLAP. This integration supports it but if you run an older version your devices may not work. Please keep this integration up to date by using HACS!

Local Integration

Although the integration works using LAN, the tapo device needs internet access to synchronize with tapo cloud, especially for credentials, a missing internet access could lead into "Invalid authentication error". A static IP must be set for device.

Authentication

For some unknown reason email with capital letters throw an "Invalid authentication" error. Before opening a new issue check your email address on Tapo App Settings. If your email contains capital letters, the integration won't work. I've opened an issue that explains this #122, I will fix asap. As a workaround you can create a new account using all lower-case in your email address.

Features

Discovery

The integration now supports native tapo discovery! To enable it you must add at least one tapo device or this line to your tapo configuration file

tapo:
  discovery: true # you can omit "discovery" by default, using "tapo:" will enable discovery automatically.

This will enable tapo device discovery. Not all tapo devices support tapo discovery, so if you can't find a device, try adding it manually. Tapo integration discovery filters out unsupported devices!

Screenshot

You can disable integration discovery by editing configuration.yaml in the following way:

tapo:
  discovery: false

Device IP Tracking

When using DHCP home assistant discovery the feature of mac address tracking is now disabled, as HA now automatically tracks mac addresses now. Please be sure to have DHCP discovery enabled on your configuration.yaml (enabled by default).

[BREAKING] Tracking mac address feature is now disabled as it is not recommended by HA. Tracking is now performed by HA itself.

Supported devices

• pure async home assistant's method
• support for tapo H100 hub and siren
• support for tapo H200 hub is currently Work In Progress!
• support for T31x temperature and humidity sensor hub's device
• support for T100 motion sensor hub's device
• support for T110 smart door hub's device
• support for S220, S210 switch hub's device
• partial support for S200B button hub's device (actually no events are reported to HA)
• support for tapo powerstrip (P300). A special thanks go to @alxlk to support me with max one-time contribution which allows me to buy the device
• support for tapo switch (P100, P110, P105, P115, P125, P110M)
• support for tapo light bulb with or without color (L530, L510, L520, L630, L610, L530B, L530E)
• support for tapo light strip with or without color (L900)
• partial support for tapo light strip (L920, L930 (including light effects)). Only RGB works not the addressable feature of strip.
• support for energy monitoring (P110, P115, P110M)
• support for tapo light switches with or without the dimmer (S500, S500d, S505d)
• support for KE100 by @delatt
• support for additional tapo sensors: overheat and wifi_signal
• allow configuration from home assistant UI with config flow
• allow configuration from configuration.yaml. supported domains are switch, light, sensor

Additional features

• manually change ip address. Now you can change the ip address of a tapo device without removing and re-adding it.
• Diagnostic settings
• Firmware update control

How to install

This integration is part of HACS store, so you don't need to add this repository as a custom repository any more. You can find it directly on HACS Store: search for tapo and you will find Tapo Controller. (HACS >= 1.6.0 is required)

This video shows installation steps:

How to add a Tapo device (after installing the integration)

Using UI

1. Be sure the integration is installed successfully
2. Go to integrations menu
3. Search for Tapo integration
4. Insert host (ip address), username and password for control your tapo device (the same used for tapo app). If you have a problem in this phase, like "invalid auth" error, please see #122, and if error persists write a comment in the same issue
5. Wait for connection. The integration will automatically recognize if the tapo device is a switch or light or something else :)

Configuration by configuration.yaml

[BREAKING]

The latest version of this integration removes configuration.yaml device configuration support. This is to follow home assistant best practices https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration_yaml_index/ and https://github.com/home-assistant/architecture/blob/master/adr/0010-integration-configuration.md#decision

Beta versions

To access to the beta version, you must install it as a custom repository

1. Install from HACS, add this repository as custom repository
2. Search into HACS store the tapo integration and install
3. Full restart of home assistant is recommended
