I’m running into the same problem, have you found a solution yet?
just add state_class: total_increasing to the template/sensor that has the total kWh
- name: "Solax Solar energy total"
state: "{{ ((state_attr('sensor.solax', 'Data')[81] * 65536) + state_attr('sensor.solax', 'Data')[80]) | float / 10 }}"
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
device_class: "energy"
state_class: total_increasing
and by the way, i did adapt a local API that works with the actual pocket wifi 2.0
Hello, I need your help. I’m still relatively new to HA. I would like to integrate my Solax WR. I copied the code with my data into the configuration.yaml. There is a green tick on it. When testing the configuration I get the following message “Integration error: sensors - Integration ‘sensors’ not found.” Can someone tell me where the problem is. Many Thanks
There are some great suggestions in this thead that heled my get everything working.
For anyone new, I have created a fully worked example.

First post in the forums…
Couple of things to add…I have an X1-Hybrid inverter, 6kW
- The inverter registration number starts S V V - it is not S W
- If you log in to the Solax Cloud website, then in the left side menu click Service, then API, it will show your token and also a URL that can be copy/pasted to a browser tab
- The URL is somewhat different to that shown at the top of this post.
Now time for my tea, and more playing…

Just tried this (link a the end) and it all works.
Cloud sensors can be used on dashboard, but made my own with the local sensors.
LOCAL Access with 5sec Polling (X1-Hybrid-G4 with Pocket WIFI)
Only bit not mentioned is how to get your inverter IP address.
I looked at my attached devices in my router settings device name comes up with
IPv4 Address: 192.168.0.xxx ; Device Name: “espressif”
There is another way which is to connect your laptop wifi directly to pocket wifi access point and logging into inverter via 5.8.8.8 IP address
I am a very happy person right now. Thanks to @kamilb

Hi All,
please could anyone help with error message ?
I inserted code to the conf.yaml , restart HA and in the entities I am able to see it.
But every entity has red exclamation mark with the text:
This entity (‘sensor.solax_soc_level’) does not have a unique ID, therefore its settings cannot be managed from the UI.
Thank you very much Lukas

Very good point! I was using the serial number of the inverter for weeks and got nothing! Its the REGISTRATION number that was needed NOT the serial number!
Thank you!

Did you get any response?
I added this to my energy dashboard but I get a message ‘Self-consumed solar energy couldn’t be calculated’ the stored value of the sensor is 54 kWh. do you know whats wrong?
I am now using a 100% local solution, no need to use the solaxcloud: Solax X1 Boost Air Mini : local data
In what yaml file do you place this code?
I have a sensor.yaml file but I don’t know where to fit this in
And if I paste it in configuration.yaml, it says the code is okay, but lets check if I am doing things in the right way 
*EDIT: I placed the sensors in configuration.yaml, better would be to fit this in a custom.yaml or something, but I didn’t get it done so putted it in configuration.yaml and it works as it should be now!
Testing your code right now. I didn’t get any error messages. Solax X3 here. I only wonder if the state_class: measurement is right in stead of total_increase.
We will see!
*EDIT It works for me with this code, sensorname yieldtotal could have an other name in your own api/setup but you have to choose the total yield, not day total.:
template:
- sensor:
- name: PV opbrengst (Total)
state: "{{ states('sensor.solax_api_yieldtotal') | float }}"
availability: "{{ states('sensor.solax_api_yieldtotal') | float > 0 }}"
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
state_class: total_increasing
device_class: energy
attributes:
last_reset: "1970-01-01T00:00:00+00:00"
Has anyone else gotten an API error in the past three days? It looks like the Solax Cloud API has been down since Friday.
Yes, same here. The server responds with an exception:
The server is busy. Please try again later!

Thanks for confirming.
Very flaky API. Definitely not to be recommended. Put uptime graphs on it about 24 days ago:
It’s been OK for me since March 7 00:58 UTC.
