Openclaw Skill Tado

Interact with Tado smart thermostat. Use for reading temperature, setting heating with auto-revert, viewing energy usage, and controlling zones.

Tado Skill

Use the Tado API to control your smart thermostat.

Authentication

Tado uses OAuth2 device code flow. You'll need:

• Client ID: 1bb50063-6b0c-4d11-bd99-387f4a91cc46
• Token endpoint: https://login.tado.com/oauth2/token

Step 1: Get Device Code

bash

curl -s -X POST "https://login.tado.com/oauth2/device_authorize" \
  -d "client_id=1bb50063-6b0c-4d11-bd99-387f4a91cc46" \
  -d "scope=offline_access"

Response:

json

{
  "device_code": "XXX_code_XXX",
  "expires_in": 300,
  "interval": 5,
  "user_code": "7BQ5ZQ",
  "verification_uri_complete": "https://login.tado.com/oauth2/device?user_code=7BQ5ZQ"
}

Step 2: User Authenticates

Visit the verification_uri_complete URL and enter the user code. The user must log into their Tado account.

Step 3: Poll for Token

bash

curl -s -X POST "https://login.tado.com/oauth2/token" \
  -d "client_id=1bb50063-6b0c-4d11-bd99-387f4a91cc46" \
  -d "device_code=YOUR_DEVICE_CODE" \
  -d "grant_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:device_code"

Response:

json

{
  "access_token": "...",
  "refresh_token": "...",
  "expires_in": 600,
  "token_type": "Bearer"
}

Step 4: Refresh Token

Access tokens expire in ~10 minutes. Use the refresh token to get a new one:

bash

curl -s -X POST "https://login.tado.com/oauth2/token" \
  -d "client_id=1bb50063-6b0c-4d11-bd99-387f4a91cc46" \
  -d "grant_type=refresh_token" \
  -d "refresh_token=YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN"

Environment Variables

Store these securely (not in the skill):

bash

export TADO_TOKEN="your-access-token"
export TADO_REFRESH_TOKEN="your-refresh-token"
export TADO_HOME_ID="your-home-id"

Get Home ID

bash

curl -s "https://my.tado.com/api/v2/me" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TADO_TOKEN"

Returns: {"homes":[{"id":123456,...}]}

List Zones

bash

curl -s "https://my.tado.com/api/v2/homes/$TADO_HOME_ID/zones" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TADO_TOKEN"

Get Zone State

bash

curl -s "https://my.tado.com/api/v2/homes/$TADO_HOME_ID/zones/$ZONE_ID/state" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TADO_TOKEN"

Get All Zones Summary

This script gets the current temperature, target temperature, and heating % for all zones:

python

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import os
import requests

TOKEN = os.environ.get("TADO_TOKEN")
HOME_ID = os.environ.get("TADO_HOME_ID")

headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {TOKEN}"}

# Get zones
zones = requests.get(f"https://my.tado.com/api/v2/homes/{HOME_ID}/zones", headers=headers).json()

print("Zone           | Current | Target | Heating")
print("---------------|---------|--------|-------")

for zone in zones:
    zid = zone["id"]
    name = zone["name"]
    state = requests.get(f"https://my.tado.com/api/v2/homes/{HOME_ID}/zones/{zid}/state", headers=headers).json()
    
    # Current temperature from sensorDataPoints
    current = state.get("sensorDataPoints", {}).get("insideTemperature", {}).get("celsius")
    # Target temperature from setting
    target = state.get("setting", {}).get("temperature", {}).get("celsius")
    # Actual heating % from activityDataPoints (not from setting!)
    heating = state.get("activityDataPoints", {}).get("heatingPower", {}).get("percentage", 0)
    
    c = f"{current:.1f}°C" if current else "N/A"
    t = f"{target:.0f}°C" if target else "-"
    h = f"{heating:.0f}%" if heating else "OFF"
    
    print(f"{name:14} | {c:7} | {t:6} | {h:>6}")

Example output:

text

Zone           | Current | Target | Heating
---------------|---------|--------|-------
Kitchen        | 18.2°C  | 18°C   | 45%
Living Room    | 16.8°C  | 17°C   | 0%
Downstairs Off | 15.2°C  | 14°C   | 78%
Master Bedroom | 17.1°C  | 14°C   | 0%
Cora's Room    | 17.7°C  | 16°C   | 23%
Upstairs Office| 19.1°C  | 19°C   | OFF
Spare Bedroom  | 19.6°C  | -      | OFF

Note: Use activityDataPoints.heatingPower.percentage to get actual heating status, not setting.power which only shows the target.

Set Temperature

Until next schedule change:

bash

curl -s -X PUT "https://my.tado.com/api/v2/homes/$TADO_HOME_ID/zones/$ZONE_ID/overlay" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TADO_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"setting":{"type":"HEATING","power":"ON","temperature":{"celsius":21}},"termination":{"type":"UNTIL_NEXT_TIME_BLOCK"}}'

With timer (e.g., 2 hours):

bash

curl -s -X PUT "https://my.tado.com/api/v2/homes/$TADO_HOME_ID/zones/$ZONE_ID/overlay" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TADO_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"setting":{"type":"HEATING","power":"ON","temperature":{"celsius":22}},"termination":{"type":"TIMER","durationInSeconds":7200}}'

Permanent:

bash

curl -s -X PUT "https://my.tado.com/api/v2/homes/$TADO_HOME_ID/zones/$ZONE_ID/overlay" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TADO_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"setting":{"type":"HEATING","power":"ON","temperature":{"celsius":20}},"termination":{"type":"MANUAL"}}'

Clear Override

bash

curl -s -X DELETE "https://my.tado.com/api/v2/homes/$TADO_HOME_ID/zones/$ZONE_ID/overlay" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TADO_TOKEN"

Get Energy Usage

bash

curl -s "https://my.tado.com/api/v2/homes/$TADO_HOME_ID/energyUsage" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TADO_TOKEN"

Termination Types

Type	Description
UNTIL_NEXT_TIME_BLOCK	Reverts at next scheduled change
