Hiya
Trying to hook into my HA server, but seem to be going in circles trying to generate an API key. I can see my existing one for Solcast, but I cannot create a new one.
I can create a new token but that's not what I need.
Is anyone else missing the option to create new keys?
Is this for a GivEnergy API or a new Solcast one?
SteveCook Givenergy - it's just missing in the dashboard:
"API Keys" is where Giv is calling OUT to Octopus or Solcast, where you have entered the 3rd party API keys into GE to make a connection.
Generate new token is what you need... the portal isn't user friendly in this respect. Make sure you copy your token after creation as you cannot access it afterwards.
I quote:
"API tokens allow third-party services to authenticate with our API on your behalf to do things like get your data or control your devices"
pacemaker Well that seems bass-ackwards.. Thank you for the pointer 🙂
Atkinstagram I figured all this out a couple of days ago and had the same reaction 🙂
