Collect Inverter data from Solarman API

Hi everyone.
I’m new to the forum and followed the guide
I sent an email to “[email protected]” to request API access and they replied like this:

Sorry, due to the API business adjustment, temporarily does not support opening.

Your understanding and patience is greatly appreciated."

Has this happened to anyone before? I have an afore af6k-sl inverter and I can’t add it to homeassistant

I asked for API-ID and I got unfortunately exactly the same answer as u posted…

Hi,
Has anyone managed to remotely control an inverter using API? As far as I can see in the documentation there is remote control, but there is no list of commands…

Hi I have the same problem with second inverter config, did you manage it on on config.json file?

Good day, the first code is clear, but how to apply the second one is not clear! Can you provide more detailed information?

I received this response from Solarman when asked for API access. Is this the expected response? Will will be crossing that 2 Lakhs API call volume by chance?

Thank you very much @Gav_in . I was unable to move further as I was following the old API link. Now I understood the reason :slight_smile:

Before pushing it further, do you think this method applies to KSTAR: KSG-2K ?

Hi,
I know this was long time ago but it looks like your steps are immortal :slight_smile: I am trying to integrate solarman and currently I am on step 4. Do you remember what is deviceSN and how I can get it?

it’s the actual serial number of your inverter as far as I remember…been a while since I set this up but fairly sure that’s it.

have you ever succeeded? I have a KSTAR KSG 5K and I can’t get it to work with Solarman.
