You are correct with your assumption.
Not a 100% sure what you mean with
“Can the time of “Force Refresh Interval”, i.e. 1440, still be set by time?”
You can do a forced refresh any time you like by calling a script or through an automation.
Thanks for the integration! I am a new owner of a Kia ev6 so I really appreciate this component!
I am thinking about how to get a smart force update of the data when I park the car at home. It is nice to get new data to HA when I get home. If I make a force update call when the car is not turned off or shortly after, shouldn’t that contribute to draining the 12volt battery?
Have you done something similar or do you have any ideas on how to do it?
I could use my smart garage door maybe that is added to HA, when it closes I do a force update. However, it happens that you open the door without actually using the car. It would be good to have someone else to use to know that the car is coming home…
Another question. Couldn’t you use the engine sensor to create an automation that updates data a little more often when the engine is running? Because then 12volt is charged and there shouldn’t be a problem?
Can someone explain the average energy consumption value? It’s making no sense to me.
My car (EV3) is reporting 15,2kWh/100km since last recharge, and 16,9kWh/100km total average. The integration is reporting 12,4 kWh/100km.
What value should I take here?
How did you manage to get this working in the UK, it’s a dutch app
For Canadians with the Hyundai login issue, here’s what has worked for me:
-
If you have previously been messing around with files to try to get this working, I would suggest you first redownload the current version of the Kia Uvo / Hyundai Bluelink integratiion from HACS
-
As shown below, edit “requirements” in /config/custom_components/kia_uvo/manifest.json
{
“domain”: “kia_uvo”,
“name”: “Kia Uvo / Hyundai Bluelink”,
“codeowners”: [“@fuatakgun”],
“config_flow”: true,
“documentation”: “GitHub - Hyundai-Kia-Connect/kia_uvo: A Home Assistant HACS integration that supports Kia Connect(Uvo) and Hyundai Bluelink. The integration supports the EU, Canada and the USA.”,
“integration_type”: “hub”,
“iot_class”: “cloud_polling”,
“issue_tracker”: “GitHub · Where software is built”,
“loggers”: [“kia_uvo”, “hyundai_kia_connect_api”],
“requirements”: [“hyundai_kia_connect_api”],
“version”: “2.42.3”
}
- Download a zip from GitHub - JordanM1738/hyundai_kia_connect_api at cloudscraper3
-
Expand the zip and just copy the folder hyundai_kia_connect_api (you don’t need the other files and directories for this fix) to the root of /config, it should not be placed in /config/custom_components where the kia_uvo directory is.
-
Restart Home Assistant for the new config to take effect.
I tried this last night and unfortunately no bueno for me.
I think the issue may be because I logged out / reinstalled the entire plug in at one point a few weeks ago in an attempt to try to get it working again. Had I left it installed perhaps it would have picked up gracefully again but perhaps now that I need to go through the login process again that’s the hang up?
I’ve 110% confirmed password and PIN is correct and evening is where it’s supposed to be. I’ll triple confirm tonight that the files are all there as I was half asleep when I was doing that portion last night.
So did I. Does not seem to matter. I tried several itterations based on the comments posted on git and they led me to finally get it working by ignoring the instruction to rename the expanded zip directory and instead of just copy its sub-directory hyundai_kia_connect_api into /config.
The instruction to add “requirements”: [“./hyundai_kia_connect_api”], rather than just “requirements”: [“hyundai_kia_connect_api”] also resulted in error 500. Once I removed ./ and rebooted HA, it finally worked.
Similarly, after several iterations based on the posts git and here, I’m still unable to get it going. I too had the error 500 which, once I removed the ./ , got me to the Authentication screen. However, I’m still facing the “Unexpected error.”
Still a no go for me. Still getting the unexpected error when trying to login with good informations.
I was able to make it work whit this change in the manifest:
“requirements”: [“git+https://github.com/JordanM1738/hyundai_kia_connect_api.git@cloudscraper3”],

Well, that change in the requirements [“git+https://github.com/JordanM1738/hyundai_kia_connect_api.git@cloudscraper3”], finally worked for me!
I initially had some problems with the quotation marks not recognised when I copied and pasted your text, but changing them with my keyboard worked. Could be because I use a multi-language keyboard.
Thank you.

OK. I’m clearly not understanding something here.
I tried the method of downloading the folder and changing the requirements line, but it didn’t work. I was getting the Unexpected Error. Then I tried the other method of changing the requirements line to the “git+https…” method and that worked great !!
So then I thought, I would really like to load my config locally instead of going to the Internet every time, so I went back to the first option with pointing to the local folder, rebooted, and it still worked !!
So why was it working this time, when it didn’t work the time before last? Strange I thought. I then renamed the entire hyundai_kia_connect_api folder to something temporary, rebooted, and it still continued to work !! Yikes. Now my requirements: tag points to a non-existing folder, yet the integration starts up fine.
Why? How can that be?
It’s like when I did the “git+https” method, it modified something else and now the workaround is really no longer needed??
I’m very confused.
Yay, this worked!
THANK YOU! Both my wife and I were really missing all of the integrations for our i5 on our dashboard. It’s aliiiivvvvvveeeee!
I beleive it have to do with the location that python download the requirement, in my case, the config path was never used.
this worked for me too! Thank you!
Hi,
after several month my Kia connnect integration becomes unavailable, when i reload it it works again for some time.

This worked for me as well, thanks!
I also had to replace the 4 quote symbols after pasting it to the manifest file.
