Audi Connect Integration for Home Assistant

Maintainers Wanted

Due to time limitations this project is not actively maintained anymore. It will continue to work as long as Audi does not change the API again. However, I'm open to someone else taking the lead. If you would like to become a maintainer, please contact me.

Description

The audiconnect component provides an integration with the Audi Connect cloud service. It adds presence detection, sensors such as range, mileage, and fuel level, and provides car actions such as locking/unlocking and setting the pre-heater.

Note: Certain functions require special permissions from Audi, such as position update via GPS.

Credit for initial API discovery go to the guys at the ioBroker VW-Connect forum, who were able to figure out how the API and the PIN hashing works. Also some implementation credit to davidgiga1993 of the original AudiAPI Python package, on which some of this code is loosely based.

Installation

There are two ways this integration can be installed into Home Assistant.

The easiest and recommended way is to install the integration using HACS, which makes future updates easy to track and install.

Alternatively, installation can be done manually by copying the files in this repository into the custom_components directory in the Home Assistant configuration directory:

Open the configuration directory of your Home Assistant installation.
If you do not have a custom_components directory, create it.
In the custom_components directory, create a new directory called audiconnect.
Copy all files from the custom_components/audiconnect/ directory in this repository into the audiconnect directory.
Restart Home Assistant.
Add the integration to Home Assistant (see Configuration).

Configuration

Configuration is done through the Home Assistant UI.

To add the integration, go to Settings ➤ Devices & Services ➤ Integrations, click ➕ Add Integration, and search for "Audi Connect".

Configuration Variables

username

(string)(Required) The username associated with your Audi Connect account.

password

(string)(Required) The password for your Audi Connect account.

S-PIN

(string)(Optional) The S-PIN for your Audi Connect account.

region

(string)(Optional) The region where your Audi Connect account is registered.
- 'DE' for Europe (or leave unset)
- 'US' for United States of America
- 'CA' for Canada
- 'CN' for China

scan_interval

(number)(Optional) The frequency in minutes for how often to fetch status data from Audi Connect. (Optional. Default is 10 minutes, can be no more frequent than 1 min.)

Services

audiconnect.refresh_vehicle_data

Normal updates retrieve data from the Audi Connect service, and don't interact directly with the vehicle. This service triggers an update request from the vehicle itself. When data is retrieved successfully, Home Assistant is automatically updated. The service requires a vehicle identification number (VIN) as a parameter.

audiconnect.execute_vehicle_action

Perform an action on the vehicle. The service takes a VIN and the action to perform as parameters. Possible action values:

lock
unlock
start_climatisation
stop_climatisation
start_charger
start_timed_charger
stop_charger
start_preheater
stop_preheater
start_window_heating
stop_window_heating

Note: Certain action require the S-PIN to be set in the configuration.

When an action is successfully performed, an update request is automatically triggered.

Example Dashboard Card

Below is an example Dashboard (Lovelace) card illustrating some of the sensors this Home Assistant addon provides.

The card requires the following front end mods:

These mods can (like this integration) be installed using HACS.

The card uses the following code in ui-lovelace.yaml (or wherever your Dashboard is configured).
