Hi
Can you please hint on how to extract the available room count for the vacuum? My vac resets maps often and its a pain to rename all of my automations with the new room numbers. I just want it to get a total room count and when we are not at home HA will send it to a random room to clean

I have provided you a link in original question. You have to add rooms or room_numbers in config of map extractor

I understand all that. And I get it through your integration. I am just asking how you managed to extract that info from API =)

It isn't retrieved directly from API, it is retrieved from the map data during parsing
