It has 292 installs sharing analytics, needs the vendor's cloud and was last updated October 21, 2026. FoxESSCloud API is an integration that reads data from FoxESS photovoltaic inverters through the FoxESS cloud. It adds sensors to Home Assistant, including daily grid consumption, feed-in, solar generation and battery charge and discharge energy for systems with a battery. These sensors can be assigned in the Home Assistant energy dashboard. It uses a subset of the FoxESSCloud API, which limits each API key to a fixed number of calls per day, so data refreshes every 3 minutes. Setup happens in the UI, where an API key and the inverter serial number are entered. Automatic summary of the README and code of SoftXperience/home-assistant-foxess-api.
