Mitsubishi MELCLOUD integration with Home Assistant

Feature Requests

Hi All. Congrats on a great job developing HomeAssistant.
Are there any plans to integrate Mitsubishi Electric Air Conditioning MelCloud cloud based platform with Home Assistant?

Thanks in advance.

Not that I’ve seen. I found this in my searches, leading me to believe it is possible:

Copied from a Norwegian forum, one of the members are trying to make MelCloud work with Homeseer:

Login that returns a contextKey:
curl --data "AppVersion=1.7.1.0&Language=7&CaptchaChallenge´=&CaptchaResponse=&Persist=true&Email=epost&Password=passord" https://app.melcloud.com/Mitsubishi.Wifi.Client/Login/ClientLogin

Get an ID and a buildingID:
curl -v --header "X-MitsContextKey: ContextKey" https://app.melcloud.com/Mitsubishi.Wifi.Client/User/ListDevices

Getting all statuses from the MelCloud adapter:
curl -v --header "X-MitsContextKey: ContextKey" https://app.melcloud.com/Mitsubishi.Wifi.Client/User/ListDevices?id=id&buildingID=buildingID

Where will this go exacly ? Sorry for my ignorance and Thanks in advance!

My post was just input to get some eager developer started :wink:

I guess you can use the URLs to get json data that you can use with HA to read the state of the heat pump , but it would be difficult without a dedicated component.

I found out that MELCLOUD is only available in certain countries. I’m in Australia and using the Mitsubishi WIFI adapter.

started coding a MQTT poller here:

+1 for MELCloud support in Home Assistant. There is a plugin in Domoticz based on Python that maybe can be used a start?

https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Plugins/MELCloud.html

I haven’t tried the MQTT poller, maybe that is a fully functional solution (to be able to control all functions of the HVAC like temperature, vanes, fan-speed, etc)?

P.S. I am not a developer so I am not the person to implement this

Hi, are there any news for melcloud?

10

no… unfortunatly I haven’t seen anything :cold_sweat:

11

Hello,
I had thought of a temporary solution …
to integrate the melcloud site into the home assistant in this way:

panel_iframe:
melcloud:
title: MELCloud
url: https://app.melcloud.com/

But I can not get to the site, I think the problem is https

Hi @delwinbest, does it work melcloud via Home Assistant?

13

No. I could not get access to Melcloud in Australia. It uses the melview API and app that comes with these devices.

Hi,

I developed the MELCloud component in order to support Mitsubishi Air Conditioner in my home-assistant.

You can find it here:

I will try to send a pull-request to HA Team when I will have 5 min :slight_smile:

Hi @o0Zz

I tried your melcloud component, but it does not work

I have this error
Error fetching Cognito keyset:
15:05 components/cloud/init.py (ERROR)

16

Hi,

This error is not related to melcloud component and melcloud don’t even use “cloud” component.
I think this error is related to another component, could you try to get logs from melcloud ?

Configuration.yaml
logger:
default: debug
logs:
homeassistant.components.climate.melcloud: debug

17

Here is the debug

2018-03-25 15:20:42 INFO (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.climate] Setting up climate.melcloud
2018-03-25 15:20:42 DEBUG (SyncWorker_0) [custom_components.climate.melcloud] Adding component: melcloud …

2018-03-25 15:20:43 DEBUG (SyncWorker_0) [custom_components.climate.melcloud] melcloud: Component successfully added !

I think everything went well, but I can not find the melcloud component

18

Yes, everything is going well, the component is unable to find your air conditionner.
In melcloud.py
Just after:

req = requests.get(“https://app.melcloud.com/Mitsubishi.Wifi.Client/User/ListDevices”, headers = {‘X-MitsContextKey’: self._authentication.getContextKey()})

Could you add below line:
_LOGGER.debug(req.json())

And provide logs.
Thanks

wow, I can’t see any device on your account. Did you register any air conditioner to your melcloud account ?
Can you control it from: https://app.melcloud.com/ ?
