Garages Amsterdam
The Garages Amsterdam integration uses an API provided by the municipality of Amsterdam, to measure the occupancy of Amsterdam parking garages in the Netherlands. You can track multiple garages by adding the integration multiple times.
Configuration
To add the Garages Amsterdam integration to your Home Assistant instance, use this My button:
If the above My button doesn’t work, you can also perform the following steps manually:
-
Browse to your Home Assistant instance.
-
In the bottom right corner, select the Add Integration button.
-
From the list, select Garages Amsterdam.
-
Follow the instructions on screen to complete the setup.
Sensor
When you add a parking garage, 4 sensors are created in your configuration by default:
- Free space long - Number of free parking spaces for cardholders or reserved spaces
- Free space short - Number of free parking spaces for regular paid parking
- Long capacity - Total of parking spaces for cardholders or reserved spaces
- Short capacity - Total of parking spaces for regular paid parking
Some parking garages don’t have long-term parking spaces, in which case the 2 specific Long sensors will not be created.
Binary Sensor
Each parking garage also has a binary sensor, which indicates whether there are problems in the data provision from the API. When it indicates ok
everything is fine. If the state changes to problem
, the upstream data might not be up to date or reliable and will remain in this state until new data is coming in.
