Hyundai users can fill in this form: [Bluelink Contact Us | Hyundai Connected Mobility](https://connected-mobility.hyundai.com/ccs-contact-form) Please make sure that you mention that this is for the myHyundai App with Homey App. Hope that this will help. ---

Hallo, What happens if I am ‘locked out from using their service? I created a flow to automate charging of my EV. Worked perfectly for a few weeks. But now my credentials are not accepted anymore. I did not change the default polling parameters… if so, will I be locked out permanently? Do you have a solution? ---

“Within Tibber the powerup for Hyundai is discontinued for new pairings due to technical dificulties. Only cars connected at the moment will be able to use the connection. It might change in the future” I am afraid this is not good news for external Hyundai (and Kia) api inregrations like Homey. ---

I have personally informed Kia that I will no longer purchase vehicles from Kia/Hyundai. The lack of API is similar to hotels still charging for internet access today. It is simply standard practice. The old API functioned excellently until Kia decided to discontinue it. ---

I have now also written Hyundai. My complete charging control had worked great for a short time. Has anyone received a response from Hyndai yet? ---

Keep in mind that Hyundai/KIA is a massive company, and combined with the Korean business culture, things don’t always move very quickly 😉 We’ve had several meetings with their team, and right now they seem cautiously open to offering an official API for vehicle data and limited controls like air conditioning. That said, there’s still quite a bit of internal decision-making left before anything is confirmed. ---

The fact that an external smart home platform could cause disruptions says more about the quality and security of the API than anything else. Frankly, that’s a weak excuse 😉 The only thing you are enabling by not opening up your APIs is inviting people to find backdoors in your system which can be exploited. _Drops mic_ ---

I know, my team built hundreds of API’s for an extreme sensitive environment, open for our customers. It’s an awful bad excuse! ---

> [@Doekse](#): > > The only thing you are enabling by not opening up your APIs is inviting people to find backdoors in your system which can be exploited. 👍 All right, so my next car won’t be a Kia. Then I’ll have to look into HA. It’s very complicated, but it seems to work with a token. They seem to have already found a backdoor. ---

Honestly, not that hard. Familiarity is the biggest hurdle. YAML is not a requirement. 1. The [Raspberry Pi installation](https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/raspberrypi/) is the easiest DIY way to get a full installation 2. To get the Kia UVO / Hyundai Bluelink integration, you first need [HACS (Home Assistant Community Store)](https://www.hacs.xyz/docs/use/download/download/#to-download-hacs) 3. Follow the instructions to download and install the [Kia UVO / Hyundai Bluelink integration](https://github.com/Hyundai-Kia-Connect/kia_uvo?tab=readme-ov-file) If you install the full HA installation, you will have the [Add-On store](https://www.home-assistant.io/addons/), and so you can very easily also install the [Homey SHS Add-On for Home Assistant](https://github.com/Doekse/addon-homeyshs/blob/main/homey-shs/DOCS.md). Then you can use the two different HA community apps to get items from HA \> Homey, or Homey \> HA. There are MANY HA integrations that are very useful to share with Homey. ---

> [@SmartHomePrimer](#): > > Honestly, not that hard. Familiarity is the biggest hurdle. YAML is not a requirement. 🤔 I’ve been using HA for 10 years. What makes you think I need instructions? Getting the Kia/Hyundai app to work via HA is a complicated pain in the ass. My virus scanner immediately kicks in with this method and prevents the procedure from being completed. Besides, I don’t want Kia to change the API again in a few weeks and have to start all over again. Kia is simply out of the question when buying a new car.
