Captcha

[danilodene]

As of today this integration has stopped working because AP Systems has added a verification code to their login page

Yes I think this one is dead - one other guy has a fork but did not update anything as of yet - https://github.com/skelgaard/homeassistant-apsystems @bgbraga are you still supporting this one?

If you don't care about privacy of production data there's option in setup to This will generate Autorized id, which can be used to build link to access data without login. Link can be build like this: https://apsystemsema.com/ema/intoDemoUser.action?id=hereGoesAutrizeId&locale=en_US. @bgbraga can you change integration to workaround captcha problem if there's no other way?

@skelgaard - any chance to have this option?

[skelgaard]

that is the option i'm working on to get to work on. as said on my own issue, i'm not a python coder, so i have to learn how to use thoose python functions to get around it... but i hope to have something working within the next couple of days

Hi,

I found solution to workaround CAPTCHA problem by not using APSystems web page at all. I'm scraping my ECU-C unit to get current production data. To create max power entity I use home assistant's sql platform with query like: `

• platform: sql queries:
  • name: "Max Power dzień" query: > SELECT MAX(CAST(state as decimal)) "MaxPowerToday" FROM states WHERE entity_id = "sensor.ostatania_zarejestrowna_Power"
    AND state != "unknown" AND state != "" AND state !="unavailable" AND date(created) = date(date("now")); column: "MaxPowerToday" unit_of_measurement: "W"

` I still hope that @skelgaard will manage to update the integration. This is just in case.

There is another integration that queries the ECU directly. I'm using it

https://github.com/ksheumaker/homeassistant-apsystems_ecur

This is for different type of ECU (ECU-R). I tested it but it hanged up after a day of work. Artur

I was able to install just fine, but will wait for a few days to see if it´s good or not. In the github´s page, it states some problems with capturing data and one thing that might help is to turn it off during the night because of systems update, did you try just in case?

[skelgaard]

i have pushed a new release on my version with a fix for this... do say if you have any problems with this

[andrebbruno]

sounds like they removed captcha now ...

[danilodene]

Captcha removed, but the login url has changed.

I make a pull request to fix it
