I was alerted to this new API in development from Mercedes and was thinking it would be good to add to Openhab via a binding for those who own a Merc. I think it would be handy to use the current car location to automate garage door opening ( if car is entering street, open the door ) or to stop/st…

I just had a look and subscribed to the API for odometer, Fuel and Electric status of my hybrid Mercedes. Anyone had a go at it yet? I see the API is based on https protocol. Could the simple hppt binding be a solution here without having to develop a specific Mercedes Binding? @J-N-K Can you let m…

HI I dont think that there is anyone workin on a binding for Mercedes, i would love to be able to connect my A250e to openhab. Maybe we could put up a bounty?? https://www.bountysource.com/teams/openhab Thanks Mads

We need OAuth (which is well documented) and a https call using a security token. A refresh-token has to be updated every 2 hours - but this should also not be too hard to implement. I wrote a simple php script working fine since some month. Unfortunately the validity of the security token expires…

Hi Mercedes-Benz #devs! We really enjoy that you are investigating with our connected car data APIs. Access is completely free for your own car with your Mercedes me account. Other platforms (e.g. domoticz) have already done this integration. May be you can grab some topics and best practices from …

Hey Olaf, thanks for joining. Overall this sounds promising, you’re very much welcome.

I’m glad to read that Olaf. I have chosen the topic as a Python learning project. I now have an automated login procedure and can access data from my vehicle. The API access to the different endpoints is currently still hard coded. I would like to get the token refresh done first. As soon as I am…

I now have a running python environment. From this I would like to build a multiplatform app (for learning purposes). However, I looked at how to get the whole thing into OH as quickly as possible before I start with the app. When asking how to capture the Auth_Code I remembered the way the spoti…

Hi spawny0815, im ready if you need testing, i have A250e hybrid 2020 model. Regards Mads

Hi, just wanted to give you a little status update. the openHAB integration is already quite far. Currently I am still working on the individual parameters that are passed for each api. This is just a lot of copy&paste for now. I have also started to write the vehicle images function. I think th…

That’s pretty cool what you achieved here. Regarding how useful it is: Triggering the pre-heating depending on the temperature and your daily working hours plus detecting when e.g.you actually started your morning shower might be really nice. Checking the fuel level in combination with the gas pri…
