Is this integration working at all these days for anyone, for me I getting nothing on usage even though when I go in the bright app it is showing
Yes and No .
Elec is working ( i have solar and batteries ) so usage and costs are correct for me but nothing on gas (which is what i really wanted this for.
I installed it a couple of weeks ago just to monitor my electricity but it seems to have a figure stuck in it for usage of 0.43kWh costing £0.46p.
I uninstalled and re-installed (with reboots in between) but it's the same.
Th Bright app on my phone seems fine
Same issue for me, no gas data and electric stuck on 0.36kWh and £0.66
Nothing at all :/ no gas and electric stuck at around 0.1kWh a day usage for past 10 days or so with 1-2 entries a day.
Hey, I've had a look at this myself and can see that I'm experiencing the same issue with electricity consumption. My Home Assistant log shows some data below but doesn't seem to make sense to me.
I decided to have a look at the API calls themselves to see if there are any things I can see there is an entry every 30 minutes with around 0.24kwh which makes sense for my usage.
I therefore think this may be related to the integration itself to HA rather than the Glowmarkt API. I do know there have been some issues with the DCC though, especially around the British Gas / Trilliant onboarding which have reduced updates from every x minutes to hours (temporarily).
I'm not overly familiar with the HA entity database but if there is a way of retrospectively creating or updating states via the API then we could work around that each run?
I too suspect that it's an issue with the integration. For a long time I was stuck on an older version of Home Assistant from last year (I think it was something like version 2022.10) and so consequently I had to use version 0.6.0 of this integration. On easter weekend I was able to update to HA 2023.1 and so I updated the integration to the latest version 1.0.3 which is when I then started seeing similar problems to what everyone else is reporting i.e. little or no gas or electricity usage being logged in HA. After a few days I rolled the integration back to version 0.6.0 and since then it seems to be working, not perfectly, but it is show almost-correct gas and electricity usage for each say since I've been back on that version, so definitely a lot better than 1.0.3
EDIT - just seen other posts mentioning #330 - is it possible that this daylight savings issue does not affect version 0.6.0?
As said in #330, I now have a simple patch that restores the main functionality and where the HA data, the data I can retrieve via pyglowmarkt, and the data in the Bright app are in synce.
However, the data in all three sources can be significantly delayed by hours, which causes huge issues for the consumption today approach! It would be great to hear @HandyHat on the problem...
Hi I also have the same issue. Several weeks now. I have Electric but no gas data in both the phone app and Home assistant. It was working and I have changed nothing. I contacted Hildebrand & GlowMarket and they say they can see my Gas data at their end. I am using British Gas SMETS2 but the display unit has no built in WiFi. Are there any other methods available?
