Hi Andrej

I am interested in collaborate… but I do not have coding knowledge for the development of the integration. But I can assist on alpha/beta testing with my hisense air machine.

And regarding unofficial API access, ConnectLife told me some weeks ago they did not had plans for API access. Are their changing their mind?

Thanks!
Raul

As far as I know, for ConnectLife public API is planned, I just have no idea about timeline. But only for the devices working with ConnectLife, not old Hisense smart appliances

Those working with ConnectLife or old Hisense app?

My machine works with Connect Life.

Hello!
I’m also interested in creating an integration. I’ve recently bought an Asko dishwasher that uses the ConnectLife app. If you could give me the API specs i could try to put something together.

Doesn’t seem related. Looks like the names are just coincidentally the same.

The latest update is: @monaco only had a link to the swagger docs for their API. However, there’s currently no way we know of for users to generate their own client ID/secret. Back in May, @monaco told me that he spoke to one of their devs and they are building a public API.

In this thread, it seems like someone contacted the ConnectLife support back in July, and they said that they estimate it to be done by Q3 2023.
I just contacted their support today and received pretty much the same response, except that their estimate has changed to the end of the year.

I would encourage anyone who’s interested in this to also contact their support and ask for the feature so they know that it’s something that their users really want. Hopefully, they will be able to give this a higher priority.
