ConnectedCar Binding myAudi, Volkswagen, VW ID, Skoda, Enyaq, Seat, Ford, WeCharge

Hello, I can test it. Can you provide me version for testing please?

Thanks

Hello @markus7017 . Yes, I also have access to a MercedesMe account, with BYOCAR options.

Hi, I used the latest SNAPSHOT jar provided and I manged to get my Audi e-tron connected. It reads data and looked good - but I then noticed that after the inital readout the values do not seem to be updated.

I checked and reduced the update period to 5 minutes but still no updates. If I manually change the configuration or add links to items, the correct values are taken (so technically it seems to work).

I searched the web and the forum but did not find anything. Is this a known issue?

Same here, with a Volkswagen. Only very occasionally I detect automatic updates. I guess this is due to API throttling (myfiles/connectedcar at master · markus7017/myfiles · GitHub). You can frequently update by a rule.

I tried manual update by switching control_UpdateVehicleStatus - but it has no effect. Or how am I supposed to trigger this manually (which I thought the “polling interval” of the binding is for?)?

I am using the latest patched version from here:

please try this version: Release Snapshot 20220225 · tknaller/openhab-addons · GitHub

and it works without problems for my ID.3 so far. Please keep in mind, that the “Last Update” will show an updated value only, if any of the values for the car has changed in the meantime. My values get updated after every drive automatically


Started looking for Toyota integration also and I found a python module on GitHub: mytoyota
@markus7017, maybe you could take a look

I have a Corolla 2021 so I can test


Same issue here as Fuetti, I have an Audi A6 TFSI e and the auto-update of the car battery SoC doesn’t seem to work. The value only updates when I open the settings of the ‘thing’ and (even without changing the polling interval) save again


Just got an Audi DataPlug for an older A3 (2009). Connected to OBD2 interface, linked to cellphone via Bluetooth, registered App, found details listed, mileage etc. Ran to openhab for adding to ConnectedCar binding, but didn’t succeed. Audi reports null vehicles, although my car is listed on my.audi portal. Anybody experienced similar or better?
I expect Audi takes the chance to upload queried data from their “plug and play” app to their servers.
Debug output:

[DEBUG] [ctedcar.internal.api.IdentityManager] - Audi: accessToken was created, valid for 2880sec
[DEBUG] [nectedcar.internal.api.ApiHttpClient] - Audi: HTTP GET https://msg.audi.de/fs-car/usermanagement/users/v1/Audi/DE/vehicles
[DEBUG] [nectedcar.internal.api.ApiHttpClient] - Audi: HTTP 200 Response: {"userVehicles":null}
[DEBUG] [dcar.internal.handler.AccountHandler] - Audi: Initialization failed: Account has no registered vehicles, go to online port and add at least 1 vehicle

Hallo,

fist thx for all the work done. I was able to create the thing in openhab 3.2 using the latest snapshot of the jar file. But there are no channels. I have a Seat Mi Electric.
So any clue how to add the channels?

This thing has no channels. Either the thing type doesn’t define channels, or they may be detected and appear later.

Update: Running now. I recreated the thing and now it is running.

Hi together,

As I ordered a Cupra Born now, I would be interested if anybody already tested the binding with the Born and knows whether it works or not.

Best regards,
Tobias

Will this binding also work with OH 3.3?
How to install?

I downloaded 3.2-SNAPSHOT from the very first post in this thread and put it in addons folder.
On my installation 3.3-M5 i can’t get a connection to myvolkswagen:

COMMUNICATION ERROR
API Call failed

@Andreas_Pircher Did you take the patch? I run this binding on similar level, 3.3-M5 but VW CarNet, with no issues. Bundle version 3.2.0.202202230038.

i treid the version you mentioned with my Multivan T7.
I would like to knwo the charging level of the battery (SoC), is this informtion available ? i can’t find a channel for that.

Remark:
Charging Power is always “0” but i still have to look into logs


Hi @cwi ,
I tried this earlier version, but I get no connection

Earlier? You need to use the version I provided the link for, as there was a change in API. It is the latest binding version - and the only one with recent API support.

Hi all,

Everything seems to work for me with this version. Unfortunately, the poll interval doesn’t work for me. This is set to 15 minutes. Unfortunately the general_LastUpdate item does not update itself. Shouldn’t this be updated every 15 minutes?
Or am I misunderstanding something?

I can also switch the connectedcar log to trace mode. I get the message logger not found.

Thanks

Same for me. I suspect this happens to save vehicle resources. I specifically ask for a frequent update via cron rule.

My understanding is that the car sends data when the engine is running. But you can also trigger a force update that wakes up the car and retrieves data. But I thought that the polling requests the web service from Seat and this is always there, even if it always has the same data. Is it correct that way?
