BINGO! I deleted the user account on my phone and then setup a new one directly with Bosch and hey presto!
Now we just need to unpick/rework the custom component to send commands like “mow” and “dock” and we are sorted!
Check this out: https://github.com/stuzfuz/bosch-indego-webinterface
you can then integrate via iframe…
Very nice, although it does not use https and I can’t see how to host it myself… my mower is called Larry. This is a bit of a hack, but at least I can mow/dock from within HA…
After reading a bit more on http://grauonline.de/alexwww/indego/indego.html I can see that you can host this locally and details are shared only with Bosch API servers…
You simply need to go to the page and then save the page locally. yoyu can then stick this into your www folder and hey presto!
I may just rework the html/css to get a “prettier” fit into HA, but otherwise, this is one way to manually start/stop the unit from within HA.
It would however still be good to be able to get more integration so that you can run automations etc…
Wow. For automations you can simply use my implementation, it should also be not that big deal to extend it.
Best regards,
iMarkus
Hi,
Could you point me where in your code to look to look to start adding mow, stop, pause, return home?
Sorry, I have 0 experience in coding a component or python…
Thanks for any help you could provide…
I am trying to create a restfu lswitch but am having some issues… anyone care to join me in trying to figure this out?
- platform: rest
name: Mow
resource: https://api.indego.iot.bosch-si.com/api/v1/alms/REDACTED/state
method: POST
authentication: basic
username: !secret indego_username
password: !secret indego_password
body_on: '{"state": "mow"}'
body_off: '{"state": "pause"}'
headers:
Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
x-im-context-id: !secret indego_context_idHi, In terms of creating or modifying the custom component, would I copy your custom component and then call it indego,mow or would I edit the code you pasted on Github?
I tried to also use your python script but can’t seem to get this working either…
Any help would be much appreciated… I have the API working in Postman now, but just can’t seem to get it right in Home Assistant. I used this in Postman: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rrko8dx9s9eyj50/IndegoAPI.json.postman_collection?dl=0
from this forum: https://www.roboter-forum.com/index.php?thread/10567-bosch-indego-connect-anbindung-an-portal-ifttt/&pageNo=3
any progress with this?
none from me, I have been working on something else… I need some help from someone that knows how to build the custom component.
Anybody got this working in 92.0?
Get this error when checking config:
Invalid config for [sensor.indego]: required key not provided @ data[‘token’]. Got None. (See ?, line ?). Please check the docs at https://home-assistant.io/components/sensor.indego/
any help with creating manifest.json? 
I am also trying to get this component to work. I think that the custom_component requirements have changed somehow. Some syntax are wrong. Anyone with skills that can have a look at this component?
Try this:
{
"domain": "indego",
"name": "Bosch Indego",
"documentation": "https://github.com/iMarkus/Indego",
"requirements": [],
"dependencies": [],
"codeowners": ["@imarkus"]
}
I am not actually currently using this component though as all I could get it to do was report the status…
The person (@iMarkus ) that created this no longer has a mower, so without someone who has one who can create the component, I think we are stuck until someone can spend some time on it figuring it out…
I have tried your code, doesnt work either. I have tested the API with Insomnia Rest Client and the Bosch API is still working as described in https://github.com/jofleck/iot-device-bosch-indego-controller/blob/master/PROTOCOL.md. I havent tried all functions, just the basic ones like authenticate and send commands.
The website http://grauonline.de/wordpress/?page_id=219 is also working for controlling your Indego mover.
I have to analyze the code from Marcus and try to get an understanding in the custom component in Home Assistant. Any helping resources are welcome!
Kind regards Jens

awesome work! can you share the repo? You may want to simply create your own new one as I am not sure how active @iMarkus is on this as he no longer has a bosch indego as far as I am aware…
I will share it as soon as I can get the code to work more like a component. I am struggling with reading the values from the conf-file at the moment…
