[Lock] Support for latchBoltLocked state

[KiraPC]

Current Situation

In the v1.1 APIs, when I set the lock state, I can just set it to lock or unlock.

Proposed Change

As per new Switchbot Lock firmware >= 6.4 it can support another state 'latchBoltLocked' that enable support for doors without external handle.

Is it possibile to support it?

Additional Context

No response

@SwitchBot-Wonderlabs any updates on this?

[plantoschka]

Please add this. Really missing that feature.

Switchbot developers, can anyone tell me the status of this option?

In Europe there are many people with other smarthome hubs that gratefully use your api, take Athom Homey for example. there are many different locks around that do use this feature in their api. this makes the lock many times more attractive to smarthome people.

in europe we do not have doors with a latch on the outside, therefore we are so far forced to unlock the door with the switchbot app itself since the above function is not yet included in the API, I think this prevents many to buy the switchbot lock. i myself am also thinking about buying another lock since the switching between apps is now very annoying and not really to call automation

would like to know if adding this feature is on your list? and if so when can we expect this to happen

thank you in advance

no one is willing to answer here from Switchbot devs?

Just installed the Lock Pro one week ago - and it is really perfect. But one of my biggest issues is the problem that we can't distinguish between "unlock" and "door open / latched" in the API. Any news about it?
