Is it possible to connect through the Cloud API? #8

Description

First, many thanks for your work - I think going through the API makes a lot of sense.

I‘d like to invest into a Wallbox that I can connect to HA. However, I’m struggling as I rented a parking spot in a garage a few meters from my apartment, and I couldn‘t connect to the Wallbox via WiFi. This adds the restriction that I need a SIM and a HA integration connecting to the cloud. „Wallbox“ doesn’t have the German EnWG14a certification at the moment.

The cloud API seems to be quite similar to the local API, so I was wondering if it was possible to connect with your integration but using the Cloud API?

Looks like this is possible to implement/add with some effort (since Authentication have to be added - and in the config/setup process you must specify additionally your generated ClouldAPI-Token AND your serial-number. But I have to admit, that this additional complexity (specially the additional documentation) is currently not on top of my agenda.

Wow, many thanks! This just triggered the purchase decision for a go-e wallbox. I’ll definitely try your API and give feedback!
