Entities not updating without manual intervention via the app #298

Open aubreyz opened 2 weeks ago

aubreyz commented 2 weeks ago

I was excited to see this integration, but I am confused. In order to be able to use this for usable automations the entities would have to update without manually updating them in the MyToyota app.

In my case, the door open statuses show a last updated time of about 3 hours previously. I can of course manually update them in the app but this seems somewhat pointless, and it also omits any history of events. So if

  1. Door is closed
  2. Door is opened
  3. Door is closed
  4. Update is forced in the app

In HA the door shows as constantly closed, because the app is never updated when the door is open.

is this how it is supposed to work? If that is the case I'm not clear as to the use case for the integration (for example it cannot issue an alert if the vehicle is accessed). Am I missing something?
