+title: "Return an integer in number selector"
+---
+
+The [Number selector](https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/blueprint/selectors/#number-selector) has been expanded and now also includes an `as_int` parameter.
+
+Using this in [config flows](/docs/data_entry_flow_index#show-form) will remove the need to add an extra validation to the schema.
+
+Example:
+
+```python
+vol.Schema(
+    {
+        vol.Optional(CONF_ADDRESS): NumberSelector(
+            NumberSelectorConfig(
+                as_int=True, min=1, max=255, mode=NumberSelectorMode.BOX
+            )
+        ),
+    }
+)
+```
+
+Old code:
+
+```python
+vol.Schema(
+    {
+        vol.Optional(CONF_ADDRESS): vol.All(
+            NumberSelector(
+                NumberSelectorConfig(
+                    min=1, max=255, mode=NumberSelectorMode.BOX
+                )
+            ),
+            vol.Coerce(int),
+        ),
+    }
+)
+```
