Cupra EU Data Act
Uses the vehicle data provided under the EU Data Act through the VW group portal. Log in with the credentials of the respective brand app (We Connect, myAudi, MyŠkoda, SEAT/CUPRA Connect).
Prerequisite (one-time, in a browser): log in to the portal, confirm the consent screen, link the vehicle and enable a continuous data request (every 15 minutes). Without this activation the portal returns no data. Data is refreshed roughly every 15 minutes.
Parameters
| Name | Description | Value | Level |
|---|---|---|---|
user | Username e.g. email address, user id, etc. | optional | |
password | Password Service account password | optional | |
brand | Brand | optional | |
vin | Vehicle Identification Number If you own multiple vehicles from the same manufacturer | optional | |
title | Title Will be displayed in the user interface | optional | |
capacity [kWh] | Battery capacity | optional | |
icon | Icon Will be displayed in the user interface | advanced | |
phases | Maximum number of phases Used to determine the minimum solar surplus and plan duration. | advanced | |
mode | Default charging mode Applied when a vehicle is connected. Leave empty to keep the current mode. | advanced | |
minCurrent [A] | Minimum current The minimum current per connected phase that can be used | advanced | |
maxCurrent [A] | Maximum current The maximum current per connected phase that can be used | advanced | |
maxPower [W] | Maximum charging power hint Defines the maximum charging power of the vehicle. Helps improve charge plan accuracy when the vehicle typically uses less than the offered current or supports higher single-phase current compared to three-phase. The offered current of the loadpoint is not affected. | advanced | |
identifiers | RFID identification Used to assign the vehicle to a loadpoint via RFID card. The identifier is shown on the loadpoint. Copy the value from there. Learn more. | advanced | |
priority | Priority Priority of the loadpoint or vehicle in relation to other loadpoints or vehicles for allocating surplus energy (higher values, higher priority). | advanced | |
cache | Cache Time interval for data refresh | advanced | |
coarsecurrent | 1A current control Vehicle supports 1A current steps only | advanced | |
streaming | Supports streaming Streaming data is received asynchronously | advanced | |
welcomecharge | Charge on connection Charger will enable charging for short time when vehicle is connected, irrespective of configured charge mode. This is useful for vehicles that require power supply when connecting. | advanced |
