Limitations (and workaround)
The API of your Alfen Wallbox EV Charger currently allows only 1 active connection.

Therefore you need to pay attention while using this HA integration:
1: Logout from your 'Eve Connect' or 'MyEve'-app on your smartphone (or any other app using the API) when configuring this integration. As a side effect from not being logged out in the other app (=1 active connection), the integration won't show any values after configuring.
2: Your 'Eve connect'- app will show 'Waiting...' and 'Status unknown, please wait...', while HA is connected to your Alfen Wallbox.
As an easy workaround, we have provided two buttons to logout and login from the API in HA:

  • HTTPS API Logout
  • HTTPS API Login
    After pressing the 'HTTPS API Logout' in HA, your 'Eve Connect'-app (or any other app using the API) will be functioning again.
    You can always reconnect when needed.
