A modern Python client for controlling Wyze devices.
Whether you're building a custom app, or integrating into a third-party service like Home Assistant, Wyze Developer Kit for Python allows you to leverage the flexibility of Python to get your project up and running as quickly as possible.
The Python Wyze SDK allows interaction with:
wyze_sdk.client.bulbs
: for controlling Wyze Bulb, Wyze Bulb Color, Wyze Bulb White, and Wyze Light Stripwyze_sdk.client.entry_sensors
: for interacting with Wyze Entry Sensorwyze_sdk.client.cameras
: for interacting with Wyze Cameraswyze_sdk.client.events
: for managing Wyze alarm eventswyze_sdk.client.locks
: for interacting with Wyze Lock and Wyze Lock Keypadwyze_sdk.client.motion_sensors
: for interacting with Wyze Motion Sensorwyze_sdk.client.plugs
: for controlling Wyze Plug and Wyze Plug Outdoorwyze_sdk.client.scales
: for controlling Wyze Scalewyze_sdk.client.switches
: for controlling Wyze Switchwyze_sdk.client.thermostats
: for controlling Wyze Thermostat and Wyze Room Sensorwyze_sdk.client.vacuums
: for controlling Wyze Robot VacuumDisclaimer: This repository is for non-destructive use only. WyzeLabs is a wonderful company providing excellent devices at a reasonable price. I ask that you do no harm and be civilized.
As this repository is entirely reverse-engineered, it may break at any time. If it does, I will fix it to the best of my ability, but feel free to file a GitHub issue or patch yourself and submit a pull request.
This library requires Python 3.8 and above. If you're unsure how to check what version of Python you're on, you can check it using the following:
Note: You may need to use
python3
before your commands to ensure you use the correct Python path. e.g.python3 --version
python --version
-- or --
python3 --version
We recommend using PyPI to install the Wyze Developer Kit for Python.
$ pip install wyze-sdk
Wyze does not provide a Web API that gives you the ability to build applications that interact with Wyze devices. This Development Kit is a reverse-engineered, module-based wrapper that makes interaction with that API possible. We have a few basic examples here with some of the more common uses but you are encouraged to explore the full range of methods available to you.
When performing user "authentication" with an email and password in the Wyze app, the credentials are exchanged for an access token and a refrsh token. These are long strings of the form lvtx.XXXX
. When using this library, be aware that there are two method for handling authentiation:
It is preferred that users first create an empty Client
object and use the login()
method to perform the token exchange.
import os
from wyze_sdk import Client
response = Client().login(email=os.environ['WYZE_EMAIL'], password=os.environ['WYZE_PASSWORD'])
print(f"access token: {response['access_token']}")
print(f"refresh token: {response['refresh_token']}")
The returned values can be stored on disk or as environment variables for use in subsequent calls.
import os
from wyze_sdk import Client
client = Client(token=os.environ['WYZE_ACCESS_TOKEN'])
...
This method has been deprecated due to issues with authentication rate limiting. While it is still a perfectly usable approach for testing or performing infrequent client actions, it is not recommended if you are scripting with this client library.
import os
from wyze_sdk import Client
from wyze_sdk.errors import WyzeApiError
client = Client(email=os.environ['WYZE_EMAIL'], password=os.environ['WYZE_PASSWORD'])
...
Visit the Wyze developer API portal to generate an API ID/KEY: https://developer-api-console.wyze.com/#/apikey/view
import os
from wyze_sdk import Client
response = Client().login(
email=os.environ['WYZE_EMAIL'],
password=os.environ['WYZE_PASSWORD'],
key_id=os.environ['WYZE_KEY_ID'],
api_key=os.environ['WYZE_API_KEY']
)
...
If your Wyze account has multi-factor authentication (2FA) enabled, you may be prompted for your 2FA code when authenticating via either supported method described above. If you wish to automate the MFA interaction, both the Client
constructor and the login()
method accept totp_key
as input. If the TOTP key is provided, the MFA prompt should not appear. Your TOTP key can be obtained during the Wyze 2FA setup process and is the same code that you would typically input into an authenticator app during 2FA setup.
import os
from wyze_sdk import Client
response = Client().login(
email=os.environ['WYZE_EMAIL'],
password=os.environ['WYZE_PASSWORD'],
totp_key=os.environ['WYZE_TOTP_KEY']
)
OR
client = Client(
email=os.environ['WYZE_EMAIL'],
password=os.environ['WYZE_PASSWORD'],
totp_key=os.environ['WYZE_TOTP_KEY']
)
...
Note: This does not work with SMS or email-based MFA.
One of the most common use-cases is querying device state from Wyze. If you want to access devices you own, or devices shared to you, this method will do both.
import os
from wyze_sdk import Client
from wyze_sdk.errors import WyzeApiError
client = Client(token=os.environ['WYZE_ACCESS_TOKEN'])
try:
response = client.devices_list()
for device in client.devices_list():
print(f"mac: {device.mac}")
print(f"nickname: {device.nickname}")
print(f"is_online: {device.is_online}")
print(f"product model: {device.product.model}")
except WyzeApiError as e:
# You will get a WyzeApiError if the request failed
print(f"Got an error: {e}")
Some devices - like cameras, bulbs, and plugs - can be switched on and off. This is done with a simple command and even supports delayed actions via timers.
import os
from datetime import timedelta
from wyze_sdk import Client
from wyze_sdk.errors import WyzeApiError
client = Client(token=os.environ['WYZE_ACCESS_TOKEN'])
try:
plug = client.plugs.info(device_mac='ABCDEF1234567890')
print(f"power: {plug.is_on}")
print(f"online: {plug.is_online}")
if plug.is_on:
client.plugs.turn_off(device_mac=plug.mac, device_model=plug.product.model, after=timedelta(hours=3))
else:
client.plugs.turn_on(device_mac=plug.mac, device_model=plug.product.model)
plug = client.plugs.info(device_mac=plug.mac)
assert plug.is_on is True
except WyzeApiError as e:
# You will get a WyzeApiError if the request failed
print(f"Got an error: {e}")
Every Wyze device has myriad properties and attributes that can be set in a common, intuitive way.
import os
from wyze_sdk import Client
from wyze_sdk.errors import WyzeApiError
client = Client(token=os.environ['WYZE_ACCESS_TOKEN'])
try:
bulb = client.bulbs.info(device_mac='ABCDEF1234567890')
print(f"power: {bulb.is_on}")
print(f"online: {bulb.is_online}")
print(f"brightness: {bulb.brightness}")
print(f"temp: {bulb.color_temp}")
print(f"color: {bulb.color}")
client.bulbs.set_brightness(device_mac=bulb.mac, device_model=bulb.product.model, brightness=100)
client.bulbs.set_color(device_mac=bulb.mac, device_model=bulb.product.model, color='ff00ff')
client.bulbs.set_color_temp(device_mac=bulb.mac, device_model=bulb.product.model, color_temp=3800)
bulb = client.bulbs.info(device_mac='ABCDEF1234567890')
assert bulb.brightness == 100
assert bulb.color == 'ff00ff'
assert bulb.color_temp == 3800
client.bulbs.set_away_mode(device_mac=bulb.mac, device_model=bulb.product.model, away_mode=True)
except WyzeApiError as e:
# You will get a WyzeApiError if the request failed
print(f"Got an error: {e}")
Want to unlock your lock, or tell your vacuum to clean certain rooms? Yeah, we got that.

print(f"is open: {lock.is_open}")
print(f"is locked: {lock.is_locked}")
if not lock.is_locked:
## let's try to figure out when it was unlocked
for record in client.locks.get_records(device_mac='YD.LO1.abcdefg0123456789abcdefg0123456789', since=datetime.now() - timedelta(hours=12)):
print(f"lock record time: {record.time}")
print(f"lock record type: {record.type}")
print(f"lock record source: {record.details.source}")
## lock up
client.locks.lock(device_mac='YD.LO1.abcdefg0123456789abcdefg0123456789')

# You will get a WyzeApiError if the request failed

try:
vacuum = client.vacuums.info(device_mac='JA_RO2_ABCDEF123456')
from wyze_sdk.models.devices import VacuumMode
# if our vacuum is out sweeping, let's find out where he is and tell him to go home
if vacuum.mode == VacuumMode.SWEEPING:
print(f"current position: {vacuum.current_position}")
client.vacuums.dock(device_mac='JA_RO2_ABCDEF123456', device_model=vacuum.product.model)
# idle hands are the devil's playground - go clean the kitchen
elif vacuum.mode == VacuumMode.IDLE:
# want to see what's going on behind the scenes?
wyze_sdk.set_stream_logger('wyze_sdk', level=logging.DEBUG)
client.vacuums.sweep_rooms(device_mac='JA_RO2_ABCDEF123456', room_ids=[room.id for room in vacuum.current_map.rooms if room.name == 'Kitchen'])
