Create 3 SDK: ValueError: badly formed hexadecimal UUID string #46

I am trying to connect to an irobot; however, there are many in the vicinity. How can I get the specific BLE ID for the robot? Create3(Bluetooth(What goes here))

If you know the robot's name (which can be set using the web server, though this requires an application restart after saving), you can use Create3(Bluetooth('robot-name')). When you connect to the robot in this manner, I believe it prints the address to the screen upon connection. You could then subsequently connect to the robot with something like Create3(Bluetooth(address='hex-address')), if memory serves.

Thank you this works well.
