Get Ecobee Air Quality attribute for RuleMachine

I'd like to run my air in my house when ecobee alerts that there is poor indoor air quality. I can't figure out a way to automate this and was wondering if the attribute is exposed to Hubitat in any way I can use RuleMachine (I'd like to turn on other things like fans and open blinds).

Does the attribute show from the device page? Or are you asking to see if it's worth setting up?

Mine don't do air quality, so I can't check. If the attribute shows on the device page, then you should be able to pull it into RM.

Have not been able to find the attribute on device page or anywhere else in Hubitat...

Which Ecobee integration are you using? The community integration exposes almost everything available from the API.

I have been using the built in one. I dont do too much with the thermostats other than set away mode and resume program. Does the community version have the air quality report visible?

Update: Just took a look at Ecobee API and found c02 from their sensor types page..does @storageanarchy know whether it's easy to expose or already is?

I am pretty sure this is not the value you are interested in - it was in the API for the pre-ecobee commercial thermostats that used external sensors.

I don’t have access to the new Ecobee that provides environmental data. You can check if there are any new attributes by running with Log Level 5 in ES Manager - it will dump the complete content of returned data in the logs. Use log level 1 or 2 after you catch the data, as 4/5 are very high overhead.
