Read new Tado API features

vamp · October 30, 2021, 2:42pm

Hello there,

Tado now beta testing “power consumption” feature. I try to figure out, how to read this value from Tado API.

I figured out, that is the site that Tado app call it.

“https://energy-insights.tado.com/”

But it need authentication. The other site “https://energy-savings-report.tado.com/” is work well with normal authentication, but the above one is not…

I try to figure out, what happen in backround, (install a HTTPS proxy on my machine) but my phone is very hard to install the proxy certificate… If somebody help me to figure out the currect API call, it would be good…

Ok this is the frist step:

https://energy-savings-report.tado.com/en/?homeId=xxxxxxxx

Now i try to figure out the next (authenticatication, maybe?)

vamp · November 4, 2021, 2:43pm

Now seems that feature is out of beta. So now is easier to investigate it…

The url is https://energy-insights.tado.com/api/homes/{homeId}/consumption
The same auth can be used on the domain.

curl example:
curl -H "authorization: Bearer TOKEN" "https://energy-insights.tado.com/api/homes/{homeId}/consumption"

response

{
  "current": {
    "consumed": {
      "amount": "5.1 kWh",
      "kwh": 5.1,
      "cost": 1.5,
      "m3": 0.5
    },
    "dateRange": {
      "start": "2022-01-01T00:00:00",
      "end": "2022-01-03T23:59:59"
    }
  },
  "last": {
    "consumed": {
      "amount": "156.2 kWh",
      "kwh": 156.2,
      "cost": 43,
      "m3": 14.2
    },

    }
  }
}

Uhhh it is really good!! Thanks a lot!!!

I have tado, and really I can’t make heads or tails of this energy report, I’ve no clue how they produce numbers out of thin air considering they know nothing about my house, my heating system, and indeed how I heated my home before I got tado.

In other words, don’t get too excited about it - it’s nonsense.

vamp · January 4, 2022, 5:41pm

@HellDiverUK

It is a different value that you said. It is a calculated m3 or kWh on the heating intensity. It is surprisingly accurate. I follow it about two month ago and It forecast it about 5% accurate compared the bill.

spider7611 · January 13, 2022, 1:58pm

Hi,

I get this:
{"infos":{"current":{"consumed":{"amount":"-- kWh","kwh":0,"cost":0,"m3":0},"dateRange":{"start":"--","end":"--"}},

What is the problem?

vamp · January 13, 2022, 4:12pm

The Token and homeid is correct?

spider7611 · January 13, 2022, 5:51pm

I think the home id is correct get with this:
https://my.tado.com/api/v2/[email protected]&password=yyyyyyyyy

and the token is ok too I think:
curl -s "https://auth.tado.com/oauth/token" -d client_id=tado-web-app -d grant_type=password -d scope=home.user -d [email protected] -d password=yyyyyyyy -d client_secret=wZaRN7rpjn3FoNyF5IFuxg9uMzYJcvOoQ8QWiIqS3hfk6gLhVlG57j5YNoZL2Rtc

Use this node red: https://pastebin.com/zVNYh4Er but have this problem: “State: Cannot read property ‘current’ of undefined”

diplix · January 13, 2022, 7:28pm

i also get „resource not found“. i guess it’s because these energy reports are disbled if you don’t subscribe the auto assist feature — and i haven’t subscribed to auto assist.

spider7611 · January 14, 2022, 7:03am

Yes, don’t have auto assist feature too. So that is the problem.

ElQuimbo · October 10, 2022, 9:41am

Hi, how did you get the auth token mentioned?
I can only see how to get the home id
Thanks!

Thank you!

Hello there!

You API endpoint is working well, but some days ago i get this message:

Missing required request parameters: [country]

It possible that the endpoint is changed? You able to help me what is the new one?

diplix · November 25, 2022, 5:27pm

it works for me by adding ?country=de to the request url:
https://energy-insights.tado.com/api/homes/{myid}/consumption?country=de

vamp · November 25, 2022, 7:27pm

Working, Thanks a lot!

spider7611 · November 29, 2022, 8:24am

You subscribed the auto assist feature? Or working without it?

diplix · November 29, 2022, 12:36pm

i did subscribe, yes. mainly to test it but i found the esimated usage data to be rather unreliable. what i did now is estimate gas usage myself. since tado shows a percentage of usage for each thermostat (0-100%) i started using powercalc to calculate power and energy usage and calibarte it agains my gas meter.

sensor:
  - platform: powercalc
    entity_id: sensor.schlafzimmer_heating
    name: Heizkörper Schlafzimmer
    create_energy_sensor: True
    linear:
      calibrate:
        - 0 -> 0
        - 100 -> 1800

after a couple of days calivarting, it works pretty well. and i’ll probably drop my tado subscription again.
