PVOuput Uploader

OK, for anybody interested, I have the solution!! It has taken a while since I’ve been busy, but it’s quite simple:

shell_command:
   pvoutputcurl: 'curl -d "d={{now().strftime("%Y%m%d")}}" -d "t={{now().strftime("%H:%M")}}" -d "v4={{states.sensor.studioforpvoutput_mean.state|round(0)}}" -H "X-Pvoutput-Apikey: apikeygoeshere" -H "X-Pvoutput-SystemId: idgoeshere" https://pvoutput.org/service/r2/addstatus.jsp'   

(the sensor mean has a max age of 5 minutes of realtime readings)

And then run an automation:

  - alias: UploadPvoutput
    hide_entity: False
    trigger:
      platform: time
      minutes: '/5'
      seconds: 00
    action:
      service: shell_command.pvoutputcurl

In the above example I am uploading “v4”. but you can do whatever you want as per the documentation:
