Improv via BLE
==============
.. seo::
:description: Instructions for setting up Improv via BLE in ESPHome.
:image: improv-social.png
The ``esp32_improv`` component in ESPHome implements the open `Improv standard <https://www.improv-wifi.com/>`__
for configuring Wi-Fi on an ESP32 device by using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to receive the credentials.
The ``esp32_improv`` component will automatically set up the :doc:`BLE Server <esp32_ble>`.
.. warning::
The BLE software stack on the ESP32 consumes a significant amount of RAM on the device.
**Crashes are likely to occur** if you include too many additional components in your device's
configuration. Memory-intensive components such as :doc:`/components/voice_assistant` and other
audio components are most likely to cause issues.

# Example configuration entry
wifi:
# ...
esp32_improv:
authorizer: binary_sensor_id
Configuration variables:
------------------------
- **authorizer** (**Required**, :ref:`config-id`): A :doc:`binary sensor <binary_sensor/index>` to authorize with.
Also accepts ``none``/``false`` to skip authorization.
- **authorized_duration** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The amount of time until authorization times out and needs
to be re-authorized. Defaults to ``1min``.
- **status_indicator** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): An :doc:`output <output/index>` to display feedback to the user.
- **identify_duration** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The amount of time to identify for. Defaults to ``10s``.
- **wifi_timeout** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The amount of time to wait before starting the Improv service
after Wi-Fi is no longer connected. Defaults to ``1min``.
- **on_start** (*Optional*, :ref:`Automation<automation>`): An action to be performed when Improv is waiting for
authorization and/or upon authorization. See :ref:`improv-on_start`.
- **on_provisioned** (*Optional*, :ref:`Automation<automation>`): An action to be performed when provisioning has
completed. See :ref:`improv-on_provisioned`.
- **on_provisioning** (*Optional*, :ref:`Automation<automation>`): An action to be performed when the device begins the
provisioning process. See :ref:`improv-on_provisioning`.
- **on_stop** (*Optional*, :ref:`Automation<automation>`): An action to be performed when Improv has stopped.
See :ref:`improv-on_stop`.
- **on_state** (*Optional*, :ref:`Automation<automation>`): An action to be performed when an Improv state change
happens. See :ref:`improv-on_state`.
.. _improv-automations:
Improv Automations
------------------
The ESP32 Improv component provides various :ref:`automations <automation>` that can be used to provide feedback during
the Improv provisioning process.
.. _improv-on_start:
``on_start``
************
This automation will be triggered when the device is waiting for authorization (usually by pressing a button on the
device, if configured -- see ``authorizer`` above) and/or upon authorization.
.. code-block:: yaml
esp32_improv:
on_start:
then:
- logger.log: "Improv awaiting authorization/authorized"
.. _improv-on_provisioned:
``on_provisioned``
******************
This automation will be triggered when provisioning has completed.
.. code-block:: yaml
esp32_improv:
on_provisioned:
then:
- logger.log: "Improv provisioned"
.. _improv-on_provisioning:
``on_provisioning``
*******************
This automation will be triggered when provisioning begins.
.. code-block:: yaml
esp32_improv:
on_provisioning:
then:
- logger.log: "Improv provisioning"
.. _improv-on_stop:
``on_stop``
***********
This automation will be triggered when Improv has stopped.
.. code-block:: yaml
esp32_improv:
on_stop:
then:
- logger.log: "Improv stopped"
.. _improv-on_state:
``on_state``
************
This automation will be triggered on every state change.
Two variables are available for use in :ref:`lambdas<config-lambda>` within this automation. They are:
- ``state``, an ``enum`` named ``improv::State``, having one of the following values:
- ``improv::STATE_STOPPED``
- ``improv::STATE_AWAITING_AUTHORIZATION``
- ``improv::STATE_AUTHORIZED``
- ``improv::STATE_PROVISIONING``
- ``improv::STATE_PROVISIONED``
- ``error``, an ``enum`` named ``improv::Error``, having one of the following values:
- ``improv::ERROR_NONE``
- ``improv::ERROR_INVALID_RPC``
- ``improv::ERROR_UNKNOWN_RPC``
- ``improv::ERROR_UNABLE_TO_CONNECT``
- ``improv::ERROR_NOT_AUTHORIZED``
- ``improv::ERROR_UNKNOWN``
.. code-block:: yaml
esp32_improv:
on_state:
then:
- if:
condition:
lambda: return state == improv::STATE_AUTHORIZED;
then:
- logger.log: "Improv state is STATE_AUTHORIZED"
Status Indicator
----------------
The ``status_indicator`` has the following patterns:
- solid: The improv service is active and waiting to be authorized.
- blinking once per second: The improv service is awaiting credentials.
- blinking 3 times per second with a break in between: The identify command has been used by the client.
- blinking 5 times per second: Credentials are being verified and saved to the device.
- off: The improv service is not running.
