I currently have my devices (2 fans and a lamp) added through smarthings, but recently after an update control is only being limited to the actual fan lights…
Smart things no longer sees the actual fans. At one point I had everything working through ST inside of HA… But it would be so much easier if I could directly bypass the SmartThings bridge…(my dang Nvidia shield single)
Any news or plans on allowing/working on direct HA integration?
Thanks a lot for the help!
We’re very open to integrations, but we’re a very small team and, unless that changes, we won’t have the resources to make any more integrations ourselves. We are very open to community integrations though!
There is at least one HA integration out in the community: here it is on the HA forums.
Was this a Bond Bridge firmware update? A SmartThings update? Or is it unclear when exactly it broke?
It was after an issue with my bond devices just NOT responding on SmartThings. I removed the devices and attempted to re-add them… and then all that was available were lights . 
I had problems with Alexa and it wanting to use a slider to control the speed on my (Fanimation) fan. So I rolled my own integration into Home Assistant.
Basically, I saw the python lib on github integrating with local api:
Problem is this requires python 3.6+, and I didn’t want to install a bunch of stuff in my HA docker instance. So I wrote a bash script using curl to invoke the API commands, put these into a folder on the HA instance (be sure to set permissions on the files) and wired it into HA using the shell_command integration. From there I created scripts to invoke the shell_command services, which made it available to automations and Alexa routines. Works pretty well. I can include samples if you’d like. It’s admittedly a little more work than selecting a plugin from the UI and you’ll need to know the API key and device key, but it should be stable barring any breaking changes in the API.
