## About

The idea for this component ist coming from the <https://github.com/walthowd/ha-automower> integration. As this integration doesn't use the offical API, I decided to create a
integration, which is based on the offical API: <https://developer.husqvarnagroup.cloud/>. There are some disatvanteges between, the offical API and the unoffical API:

- Offical API is limited to 10,000 accesses per 30 days. So state of the mower is only update every 5 minutes
- API-Key is needed

But the adavantage is, that Husqvarna won't close the offical API suddenly.
This integration is based on the offical
[API](https://developer.husqvarnagroup.cloud/). The integration is using the
Husqvarna websocket API for pushed updates, so no polling is performed. You
need a API key to use this integration, refer to [this
guide](https://developer.husqvarnagroup.cloud/docs/getting-started) on how to
get one.
