No Data for DELTA 2

[Sprinterfreak]

What is the current state of the API implementation?

I tried today for the first time and got no data so far.

Running on ubuntu (docker)

The app can access the device.

I tried so far:

• Logout the app user
• Force kill the app on the mobile
• Create a dedicated api user for the exporter and share the device to it All to avoid possible session collision. But without any success.

Can anyone confirm this currently working?

My Delta2 often looses wifi connection and then it show up in the app but not via mqtt. Try to reconnect to your WiFi . You could also try if your app still shows the Delta2 when away from home ...

[Sprinterfreak]

Still no data. To simulate an "away from home" condition, I disabled Wifi and Bluetooth on the phone. The ecoflow app can communicate with the device while the exporter don't.

Firmware versions on my Delta 2 V1.0.0.64 V1.0.3.18(Wi-Fi)

Works now after just sitting hours and hours. Seems like always, cloud services are not an option if reliability is required :( No cloud service provider is different. Memo to me: Buy stuff which does not need external services.

[berezhinskiy]

Unfortunately, this is the official response to my query regarding the possibility of communicating with EcoFlow devices via a private IP address:

Our customer are concerned about privacy disclosure caused by it, so the access to it has been closed.

I am curious if they are aware that the device is consistently accessible through Bluetooth without requiring any authorization. I despise such a mindset 🤦🏻‍♂️

[Sprinterfreak]

The best solution would be if one could just configure the broker to connect to. No open ports required during operation. Also this is by far the most secure method possible in terms of disclosure due to open management connections into a the blue.
