Hi2All,
As anyone played around with HommeAssistant Addon for the mg4 ( from https://github.com/SAIC-iSmart-API/saic-home-assistant-addon ?
I can see data of the car on my home Assistant -BUT- the app then loses the acccess and I need to re authenticate it ( and then the homeAssistant Addon loses access
otherwise quite nice to see the car data via HomeAssistant

Of course, I'm one of the Devs of the add-on

Just share the digital key to another account /email and use that for daily use. Keep the original for HA and you're golden

OK done - but the shared key only gives you access to lock/inlock/start the car from the "other account"... the other app features that you access are now in the homeAssistant - or the ismart app with the original account where the car is binded.....
Ummmmm-- deciding moment -access all via homeASSIST -or- the app...
For the moment the app wins: the homeassist isnt internet ready yet( mine that is)

I'm using it. I set up a phone dashboard which is on both our phones:

And have the rest of it all in a larger browser window dashboard.

Plus track some key stuff with Grafana:
