MMM-BMWConnected (BMW Connected Drive data)

[sdetweil]

@klassieker said in MMM-BMWConnected (BMW Connected Drive data):

the module didn’t react on config: apiBase

ok, don’t know what that means…

what did u try to do in the module config that didn’t work

[Klassieker]

@sdetweil
Adding the row:
apiBase: “https://www.bmw-connecteddrive.com”,

[sdetweil]

@klassieker >apiBase: “https://www.bmw-connecteddrive.com”,

it doesn’t want the “https://” in the front, it adds that internally

apiBase	The location of the base API URL for your region.

Default: www.bmw-connecteddrive.co.uk

@sdetweil
Ah, I overread that part of https://.
I changed it back and it is still working .
Many thanks for helping me.

I still have the problem with “Loading”, and nothing happened. My module looks like the print screen. What is my fault?

Thanks a lot !

@wwats Hi mate, did you manage to make this module work? I am kind of the opinion that it could be linked to the fact that BMW changed the login landing page. Before it was www.bmw-connecteddrive.uk or .ch or .com etc.
Now I guess this has changed to a more unifying page which if you click login you get a popup. I don’t know but I can think this could be part of the issue. Same time I struggle with it as it apparently works for others. It would be nice if, who ever has the module running right now, could share his setup or what he changed to make it happen. Many thanks! Pat

Edit: By the way, tried to reach out to the creator of this module via insta and twitter. No chance. He never came back.

@klassieker Can you please explain exactly how you managed to display two vehicles. So far I just can’t do it. Are both vehicles in one BMW account?

[Klassieker]

@crush
Sorry for my late reaction. What I did to get two vehicles is changing the code en created a variable for my second car. I use one acount for my BMW.
But, since a few months, I cannot make the module work. Probably because of an update or because BMW changed the landing page, like @duxnobis suggested.
So if I can get it to work again, I can share the code I changed.

@klassieker I would be very happy if you would provide me with your changes. Thanks very much!

@crush
Does your BMW connected drive work for one car?
If so, please let me know how, I can’t get it to work anymore

[crush]

@klassieker Yes it is working for one car. I’m using the philmavedzenge fork from https://github.com/philmavedzenge/MMM-BMWConnected cause I’ve a diesel engine vehicle and don’t need the electrical information. I also tried the original MMM-Connected from https://github.com/hdurdle/MMM-BMWConnected, these version worked for me too. Both versions only works with API: b2vapi.bmwgroup.com
Maybe that is the solution for you!

[snookA]

Im new to this module. Ive tried all solutions found in this thread. Used different forks, changed default api to b2vapi.bmwgroup.com.

Im from Germany and i would be really happy if someone could share his whole working module and config with me. thanks in advance!

BMW changed their service terms, and it needs fee for car data retrieving. I think we can’t get this module work by a simple modification. https://bmw-cardata.bmwgroup.com/thirdparty/public/car-data/technical-configuration/api-documentation

[zumpen]

@iMAGiC so if you pay for connected services this should work?

[ldeutsch]

Hi, I have a connected drive account for my company car … but I did not find where to agree to using my cars data. However I think it has to be possible to use the data for free. Why ? Because my openhab installation has a connected drive module which does retrieve my cars data regularily. Also I have found this:

https://github.com/bimmerconnected/bimmer_connected

Seems to work …

Hallo,

Has anyone made this work in Germany?

[mailman]

Hello,

Is this module totally buried because BMW did something to their API ?
