Considering options to get Home Assistant values to Indigo

Been going through the forums, etc. to see if it would be feasible. Looks like the current Plug-ins may not be usable going forward?

Why the interest in Home Assistant? There is an existing 3rd party integration to Kia/Hyundai Bluelink API that connects/reports on status/values of my Hyundai Ioniq 5 EV. Much more efficient and easier to use than the Bluelink App.

Since I only want about 3 or 4 values I may try to hit up the Hyundai servers directly.
Just thinking out loud for the moment to see what options might be available.

Use MQTT and check the last message of this thread: viewtopic.php?f=316&t=26552

I followed the suggestion and it works quite well.

Am I correct that I will need all 3 MQTT Plugins? Broker, Connector and Shims?

You need a broker. It can be the plugin or it could be external to Indigo.

You need the Connector.

You don’t need Shims if you’re using the method in the link above.
