In case of really bad API troubles from Growatt’s side (not Robin’s app fault) :  
If your inverter supports it, people can use the aforementioned Growatt modbus app, which uses a local connection;

or, if the inverter is “API only”:  
people can use the [Grott app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-grott-use-mqtt-to-monitor-your-growatt-inverters/103267), which needs an additional pc (thin client / Raspberry Pi) to run a python script.  
This puts itself “in between” your inverter and Growatt API, which provides for a very stable local network connection, and, if you allowed it, it keeps sending data to the Growatt cloud.  
I have it poll every minute.
