I don't use GitHub often so hopefully creating an "issue" is the proper way to do this.

I'm looking to track the set point / target temperature of my Daikin thermostat. I tried creating a helper template sensor but didn't work out that well and just thought it would be an easy update to have the integration report the setpoint.

I graph the temperature of individual spaces in my home and would like to have a line representing the set point/target temp to see how well the spaces maintain their temperature.

Isn't that already supported? It's called 'target temperature'. I see it in the climate graph

I checked all entities within the integration and I don't see anything that resembles the target temperature.

Im sure its tracked somewhere because I can see the target temp on the HA native thermostat but its not visible within the list of entities that I can see.

You can add the thermostat entity to your graphs to show the target temperature, but you'll always get the current temperature and state with it, but I guess that's not what you're looking for.

I have the same request to have the thermostat target temperatures (low and high) added as entities. My use case is to build an automation to switch the HVAC system from the normal heat pump to the emergency heat climate preset mode (the gas furnace) when the actual temperature has not met the Daikin One+ target temperature low setpoint for 2 hours.

I ended up creating a "helper" template sensor through the UI. Just copy/paste the below into the "state template" section, give it a name, change to your entity name, and select your device entity in the dropdown.

It actually is exposed but I think it's an entity attribute so the helper is a bit easier anyway.

{{ state_attr('climate.main_room_thermostat', 'temperature') }}

Also, if you want low / high then those attribute names are below

target_temp_high
target_temp_low

Thank you very much. After a bit of poking around and then figuring out the thermostat had a different name, I got it to work.
