Do you update all the items manually after the initial setup?
The token update only works with your Client_ID and the refresh_token.
In my example i use String items to store these.
String carBMW_Client_ID "Client ID [%s]" (gPersist, gBMWTokens)
String carBMW_Token_Refresh "Refresh Token [%s]" (gPersist, gBMWTokens)
After step 7 I donāt get an āauthenticatedā screen on the link you BMW ID page but instead a ālogin successfulā > please continue in the vehicle. The text does not mention you need to sit inside the car for any step - or did I miss something? Iām currently not at home so thatās an issue for me.
I never had this message.
Edit: Is your car connected to the BMW ID youĀ“re using?
It sounds like the car isnĀ“t connected to your account and needs to be authenticaed first.
Yes the car is connected to the same ID. I can control it using the myBMW App.
Is not required. You can find mij solution BMW CarData service through MQTT
Hey @Bredmich, this is really great work! It took me a few hours to get everything up and running, but Iām happy to have my BMW data back in my openhab server!
I changed the code a little bit, because Iām not using file based rules but rules within the main ui. Iām also not using telegram for notification but the openhab app, which is connected to my openhab server by the openhab cloud. If anyone is interested, I can also share my code, but I donāt want to get this thread more complicated.
Some hints for anyone who is using this tutorial:
You have the install the JSONPATH transformation for getting the thing channels working.
If you are using the great JS scripts from @Bredmich and skip the telegram and logviewer parts of the installation, you have to fill the following items with the right information, before you are able to use BMW_Token_Refresh.js and BMW_ID_Token_Update.js
String carBMW_Token_Refresh "Refresh Token \[%s\]" (gPersist, gBMWTokens)
String carBMW_Token_ID "ID Token \[%s\]" (gPersist, gBMWTokens)
String carBMW_Client_ID "Client ID \[%s\]" (gPersist, gBMWTokens)
String carBMW_Username "Username \[%s\]" (gPersist, gBMWTokens)
Number carBMW_Expire "Expiry date" (gPersist, gBMWTokens)
Hi @kuczerek, I am interested in your modifications using the openHAB app instead of Signal. Somehow this solution stopped working for me so I am planning to start again. I am also using MainUI only for rules, things and items.
In order not to confuse this tutorial with a different solution perhaps DM me, I plan to make a new tutorial from a-z as this is still quite complicated for a lot of users.
It is the same for me, but it still works fine for the authentication.
@Bredmich Thank you for your work!
Quick question: if I just created a copy of your scripts and updated the associated variables, items letās say to carBMWB_Token_Access, etc. - do you think itād work with a second car on a separate ConnectedDrive account?
Give it a try 
I tried to put every item definition in the beginning so they can be changed easily.
HI @mvbergen ,
no problem, youāve got mail
Hello,
Thanks for putting this together!
Trying the link you provided to set up the CarData, I cannot log in at this link, despite having a BMW connected drive account. Iām in the US and wondering if the link to geo specific? If I go to https://www.bmwusa.com/, I can log into my account with my usual uname/passwd.
From there, trying to find where I can do what you described:. I start here:
Then to āMy Garageā
Then to āCarDataā
Then to āManage Access Permissionsā
Once Iām here I donāt see anywhere to create a client. Any idea if this is possible from BMW-USA?
Yes, itās probably only for europe.
It should be a global service but i canāt find any information about the CarData API in the USA.
@Bredmich thanks for the quick reply!
I found this info, where under the ā2. Technical registrationā ā ā2.1 Step 1: Generate your client IDā section it has a link to the world wide portals:
However when I follow this for the US, it takes me to the same site I was looking on previously.
