Working on the @homeassistant setup this weekend now that the pantry is getting closer to being finished.

Trying to setup an automation to run the robot vacuum in the utility room every third time the litter box goes off. Cannot seem to get the zones working though.

Any thoughts?

    It’s telling you exactly what is wrong…

    Int means a number. It’s expecting a number, and you’ve simply provided ‘kitchen’. I’m not sure what a “Segment” is in this context, but it needs to be a number, or list of numbers as the label explains. That means you need to map rooms, and get their numbers.

    I can’t help you with that but it brought to mind a funny story. I was at a customer’s house doing some work and she was on a conference call so unable to be attentive. Her robot vac started working the bedrooms and bathroom where her catbox was and that glorious kitty had kicked out a sizable nugget that the robot grabbed and smeared all the way down the carpeted hallway and back.
