    Add Home Assistant in Flowplane

    In the Flowplane console, add Home Assistant, choose Access token or Sign in, and give the address where you open Home Assistant. An address inside your home network works through a tunnel, with an access token.

    There are two ways in. With an access token (recommended), you paste your Home Assistant’s address and a long-lived access token made under your profile, Security; the token acts with the rights of the user who made it. With Sign in, you give the address and sign in on Home Assistant’s own page with an administrator account. Either way Flowplane keeps the credentials sealed; the assistant never sees them.

What it can do

What Mistral Le Chat can do in Home Assistant

Home Assistant runs the smart home of many people who host it themselves. Through Flowplane an AI assistant can list your devices and sensors with their state, read one device’s details, look at how a sensor changed over time and read the logbook. It can call any Home Assistant service, such as turning on a light or setting the thermostat, and each call waits for your approval first.

FAQ

Questions

Which way should I choose, Access token or Sign in?
Access token is recommended: it works with any Home Assistant version, also inside your home network through a tunnel, and its tools are Flowplane’s, so they do not depend on what Assist exposes. Sign in needs a recent Home Assistant with the Model Context Protocol Server integration, reachable from the internet with its External URL set, and an administrator account.
Can the assistant unlock my door?
It can ask to. Control a device can call any Home Assistant service, locks, alarms and garage doors included, and it asks a person to approve every call by default. If an admin sets it to allow, assistants can do anything Home Assistant can, with the rights of the token’s user, so keep it on ask. Through Sign in, Assist’s tools count as changes and ask too.
What is left out on purpose?
With the access token: rendering templates (they run code on your Home Assistant), configuration, firing events, the error log and camera images. History and the logbook are read in windows of at most 7 days. Home Assistant’s REST API does not know areas, so devices are found by kind and by words in their name, such as the room.
Does Mistral Le Chat see the password or key for Home Assistant?
No. You sign in to Home Assistant through Flowplane, which keeps that sign-in sealed. Mistral Le Chat only gets a Flowplane sign-in for you, which you can revoke in the console.
Can Mistral Le Chat change things in Home Assistant without asking?
Not by default: every change in Home Assistant waits for your approval in the browser. Your workspace’s rules decide, per tool.
