When using the Tibber app, I can easily press "start" in the app when the car is connected and the car start charging. The functionality is possible since I have the Tibber pulse and have smart charging available. I would like to get this functionality in Home Assistant instead so I can use only a lovelace dashboard and not the Tibber app. Would this be possible? I am fairly new to home assistant so I'm not entirely sure how service calls works, but I suppose this is something that has to be done by an automation? Any help would be much appreciated.

Did you try to call one of the services resume or override_schedule? I'm not sure when it comes to smart charging, but my guess that one of them will do what you want.

If the Tibber integration is controlling the dynamic circuit current I think it will be difficult to override if from HA using the easee integration. In that case you would have to call a Tibber API to override and start charging. But I do not use Tibber so I can not really say if that is the way it works.

I use easee.resume to override Tibber's schedule.
