Hello -
I’m wondering what the current state of the BMW integration is…
I’ve seen posts that state it’s offline, and others with workarounds that work…sometimes…and others pointing to forks that seem to be stalled.
Can someone point me to what’s working as I’d like to add my car to my HA installation.
Many thanks,
Squid 
I think people are using this fork, it was updated last week.
Personally I’m having duplication issues, but I think that’s my end.
If only there was a search tool option in GitHub where you could sort by date last updated as well as most popular…

Really -
You had to be THAT guy with a lame ass reply like that?
Did you even bother to read the post, where I said i had read many and was looking for some input from the community…
Communities like this…do just that…communicate…we help, we assist!
I appreciate @RoadkillUK taking the time to give his perspective.
I’ll take a look at that fork…
Thanks,
Squid
I have chased down the rabbit hole for other third party integrations where there have been many forks and abandoned attempts and have found there isn’t a stable version. I sympathize with your challenge. This is my reflection of the challenge you probably face - the community input you sought.
If only there was a way to mark some forks as abandoned so you don’t go down that side track hoping for something that might be.
I’m not a BMW owner myself, so my comment was aimed at your search options, rather than offering you the obvious solution. Sorry to have raised your hackles.
Best wishes with your path to enlightenment!
I’ve been following many threads and for me currently I used BMW CarData → MQTT Bridge for many months now to populate the data to Domoticz.
It will populate the BMW data to MQTT.
And now with some magic
I’m able to use HA autodiscovery to create my sensors. It is still work in progress.
Couple of questions…will this work for a vehicle in the US, as I think the other integrations only work with cars in the EU.
Can you share your flow?

If the bridge works the NodeRed flow will work.
So i would start with the bridge
IInstructions on the authors website worked for me to get it running.
For EU BMW had to provide us with something.
Initial setup can be found here:
Unfortunately, it’s only some European countries at the moment (not even all of Europe). We need to wait for CarData Stream to roll out in the USA, if it ever does. EU companies are generally more open about sharing data with customers than US companies/subsidiaries, and BMW USA essentially operates as a separate company, so it’s not guaranteed that it’ll ever roll out in the USA.
