Just got into HA so really glad to see I’m not the only one who’s asking about this. I would help but I only know python and only how to create janky automatons.
Has there been any traction on this? I would love to be able to integrate this.
Adding my voice as another interested party. I have an old Anova and could be convinced to upgrade if it means HA support.
Just got the joule smart air fryer and want to get that sucker integrated!
@Julian_Garcia, did you ever get anywhere? It looks like there is no interest on CS’ part. Can we get the API documentation to do it ourselves, at least?

That’s great to hear. Any idea on timeline for Home Assistant support? I use my Joule to warm up my kid’s bottles and I’d love to be able to schedule mine to start heating at a specific time each night.
@Julian_Garcia - if you have anything that we can start working with to get the ball rolling, I am more than happy to carry my weight.

Just posting these pictures from the FCC filing showing our little buddy powering the brain of the Air Fryer Pro.
How convenient they label the programming pins on the back of the PCB.
I’m a complete noob here and probably already out of my depth… but would it be easy/possible to extract the firmware and then decompile/reverse engineer to find and learn the API calls?
I had some time to burn and found this repo on github from a guy that built a Chrome extension to talk to the Joule. He has reversed-engineered a lot of the details, but the bulk is in Javascript
GitHub - li-dennis/chromeJoule
The core functionality is there. It should allow to build a polling integration.

If you scroll up, I posted a link to the plugin I started writing. I started porting the code from that repo over to it but havent had a chance to revisit. You’re welcome to grab the code and continue developing it.
Any updates on this? Really all I’m looking for is to get the timer on my air fryer pro so I can set some automations. Would like to avoid using a smart plug if an integration were available.
Thanks!
I noticed the code seemed to be for the ChefSteps version, the Breville one seems to require a different app, but not sure if the backend API is different. Just got a new Joule to replace one from a flood and will try and give this a go.

Hopefully it still has ability to be controlled locally. That was the original goal to control it locally not over their API. I just used the API to get the device IP and what not… As far as this plugin goes, hopefully someone picks it up and finishes it. I don’t have the time or a device to test with now unfortunately.
Just stumbled on this thread. I’m beyond annoyed with the official Joule app and desperately looking for an alternative. Either a really basic mobile app that just sets temp with a basic timer and notifications, or a home assistant integration would be perfect. I think this Chrome extension is the most promising starting point. I was able to get it running and it works well so far! Left some notes if you want to get it running yourself and maybe someone feels the initiative to turn this into a home assistant (that person might be me, we’ll see) Got this working, leaving some notes for future updates · Issue #10 · li-dennis/chromeJoule · GitHub
