Yeah, if I recall it right the “Suggest feature” was a replacement to the rating system, with popular “requests for help” like: `1 star, crap app, it doesn't work`, and no way to reach the nice person who wrote it. ---

The Suggest a Feature got added later. I personally also don’t like the Suggest a Feature option, because the only way to reply to those is via email and I don’t want to expose my email address. I would rather have the button lead to the forum topic of the app, which is where I want bugs and feature requests to be reported. ---

Can you guyz still change anything at the currect test version? Invalid Token: homey:device:cac97fc5-135c-4c89-aaa0-a54dd025457b|battery\_charging\_state → this variable doesn’t work in advanced flows. I was trying to send it in a message, but get above error code. The ohter variables are working fine ---

**eature Request: Add `meter_power` support for Homey Energy integration** Hi Kim, First, thanks for the great app — Solis data in Homey works well for real-time monitoring. **Issue:** The Solis Inverter device (`class: solarpanel`) appears correctly as a generator in the Energy live view, but the daily kWh for “Solcellepaneler” shows `— kWh` in the Energy dashboard. **Root cause:** The device reports `measure_power` (W) and `day_energy_capability` (kWh) but is missing the standard `meter_power` capability (cumulative kWh meter) that Homey Energy uses to calculate daily production. The `energy` field on the device is also `null`. **The device already has the data available:** - `day_energy_capability` — today’s production (e.g. 6.9 kWh) - `all_energy_capability` — total lifetime production (e.g. 27 229 kWh, monotonically increasing) **Suggested fix:** Map `all_energy_capability` (or a running total) to the standard `meter_power`capability, and configure the `energy` object on the device, e.g.: json ```auto energy: { "generator": [{ "id": "meter_power", "approximated": false }] } ``` This would make the Solis inverter appear with correct daily kWh in Homey Energy alongside consumption and grid data. ---

Hi Mats, The app has been transferred to Solis Nederland (?)(something “official”) a year ago. Nothing’s changed ever since, such a pity. Next, I don’t understand at all why apps / app devs need to adjust all kinds of stuff to have devices show up in the Energy tab. I’d very much like to suggest to use the [Power by the Hour community app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-power-by-the-hour-insights-per-hour-day-month-and-year/20535). It’s the example for the Energy tab, only it just works fine. Excellent stuff! ---

Hi Kim, thank you for a good app! I’m curious, why did you hand the app over to Homey/Solis, did they force you to? I think the Athom/Homey “principle” of allowing only one app per “brand” is highly unfortunate. Why not instead have a “community app store” where anyone is allowed to publish apps for anything, regardless of if any similar apps exist. That would lead to more and better apps to choose from. I think that could be the problem here if you decide to restart, Athom would simply reject it arguing that an app for Solis already exist? Kind of ironic since you were the one who developed it. Anyway, I was interested to add functionality to limit the output power, (0-110%) to use when there are negative electricity prices. I tested it with my inverter and it works. I totally support you to restart the app, and contribute or propose some new functionality. If it would be only available “for test”, that would be totally fine for me. ---

Well, not me anymore. I solved my problem via Modbus as well. But it would be nice if it were made working via the cloud for people without a Modbus TCP/IP dongle.

I think most people running Homey don’t have Home Assistant running alongside it. But it does show that it is possible. I wrote about this somewhere before. The official Homey cloud app is on hold (information from the developer). All necessary information has been sent to Homey/Athom (information from Solis Europe). So what the problem is now, I have no idea. In any case, I have my desired setup running via Modbus. I did update an inverter at my mother’s to an S2-WL-ST. But that was an old device connected to it that didn’t respond well via the Solis iPhone app either. ---

> [@Johan\_Bruyn](#): > > But it does show that it is possible Hi Johan, Yea that was just my point: It _is_ possible per cloud connection. Somehow no one seems interested yet to pour it into a Homey app, which is unfortunate. The “official” Solis cloud inverter app is a joke, no update since Kim handed it over a year ago. I hope Kim can’t wait to publish his app version again as community app 😬😉😉 ---

Well, that was the first thing Solis told me—that it was possible via the API—when I asked for a Modbus datasheet for the controls. (They only provide it to installers, and you have to sign for it. So you have to search the depths of the internet.) From January 1, 2027 (that is in less than half a year), we (at least in the Netherlands) will have to deal with negative feed-in tariffs. So, you want to regulate the output power from the inverter back to the consumption in the home. Homey is a perfect platform for that. So, to date, I say it is a missed opportunity. ---

Hi, I’m experiencing an API/read issue with the official Solis Cloud Inverter app. **Homey** - Solis Cloud Inverter - Test version 1.3.0 - Inverter: Solis S6-EH1P5K-L-PLUS - Device shows 0 W / 0 kWh - “Error read” alarm is triggered - Re-entering all API settings and restarting the app does not solve the issue - API URL in Homey: `https://v3.soliscloud.com:13333` **Important: direct API test works** Using the same API KeyID and KeySecret outside Homey, I can successfully call: `https://v3.soliscloud.com:13333/v1/api/inverterList` Result: `HTTP 200` ```auto { "success": true, "code": "0", "msg": "success" } ``` The inverter is returned correctly and its state is `normal`. During testing I also found that signing the request with: `Content-Type: application/json` works successfully against the v3 API. The older `application/json;charset=UTF-8` variant resulted in: `HTTP 403` `wrong sign` So the SolisCloud credentials and API access are working correctly. The problem appears to be in the Homey app’s API request/signing or in processing the current API response. Could you please check whether the app still signs its SolisCloud requests using the old Content-Type, and whether the current API response for the S6-EH1P hybrid series is handled correctly? **Homey diagnostics report:** `3d5d7b63-4f04-49ff-9dab-fc6bdeba09b3` I can provide additional test results if needed.
