Hi I'd would love to use this feature, as it would make it possible to charge my 530e at the cheapest possible time using Home Assistant - instead of manually adjusting the charging times in the myBMW-app every day 😀 PS: Thanks for a brilliant integration |

You're right, it is missing at the moment. I'll put it into our backlog, shouldn't be a big effort. BTW: Does the MyBMW app also provide a "Stop Charging" service? Don't have an EV so cannot check this with my app. |

Sounds great, thanks for the quick reply. There unfortunately isn't a "Stop Charging" button in the app, but you can change charging modes. It alternates between "charge now" and "charge in time slot". Switching back to a time slot set to e.g. 00:00 AM - 00:01 AM would almost be the same as "stop charging". I assume that this is the underlying function of the feature here: 8.17.3 bimmer_connected.vehicle.charging_profile Charging management features in the My BMW app - BMW How-To

Hi @rikroe, Got it working this morning. Request body when switching to 'charge immediately': {

"chargingPreference": "NO_PRESELECTION"
},
"departureTimer": {
"type": "TWO_DEPARTURE_TIMER",
"weeklyTimers": [
{
"id": 1,
"time": "0001-01-01T09:00:00.000",

"daysOfTheWeek": [],
"timerAction": "DEACTIVATE"
}
]
},
"isPreconditionForDepartureActive": false
}Switching to 'charge in window': {
"servicePack": "ATM",
"chargingMode": {
"type": "TIME_SLOT",
"startTimeSlot": "0001-01-01T22:05:00.000",

},
"departureTimer": {
"type": "TWO_DEPARTURE_TIMER",
"weeklyTimers": [
{
"id": 1,

"daysOfTheWeek": [],

}

},
"isPreconditionForDepartureActive": false
}Looks like it is the 'chargingMode' block which is modified. The response is an eventId which can be queried for its status. (https://cocoapi.bmwgroup.com/eadrax-vrccs/v3/presentation/remote-commands/eventStatus?eventId=ID) |

Very nice! I hope that If so, it should be fairly easy integrating this into the library. We already query the After integration in the library, how would we include something like this in HA? |

Ok, came up with a scrappy solution - not sure if that's what we want (also the question is if more interesting data can be retrieved from the above API). Please try the following: Then, execute one of the remote services using the following (or however you would like to execute them): import asyncio
from bimmer_connected.account import MyBMWAccount
from bimmer_connected.api.regions import get_region_from_name
from bimmer_connected.vehicle.charging_profile import ChargingPreferences
USERNAME = ""
PASSWORD = ""
REGION = get_region_from_name("rest_of_world")
VIN = ""
myBMW = MyBMWAccount(USERNAME, PASSWORD, REGION)
asyncio.run(myBMW.get_vehicles())
asyncio.run(myBMW.get_vehicle(VIN).remote_services.trigger_charging_mode_change(ChargingPreferences.CHARGING_WINDOW))
# or
# asyncio.run(myBMW.get_vehicle(VIN).remote_services.trigger_charging_mode_change(ChargingPreferences.NO_PRESELECTION)) |

Ah very cool, thanks! I'll need some time thinking about how to fully integrate this in the library - yes, it works but having the GET endpoint only called when actually changing something feels out of place compared to the rest of the lib. I feel it should rather be included in the actual So the question would be is any of the additional data from the new endpoint needed/interesting or we just need it to update? Also, how does this compare with the actual |

Interested in hearing if this effort is still ongoing? It looks like you have gotten quite far! Also seem to be on the wish list for quite a few. I can definitely help with some testing on an i4 if required. One feature I'd be particularly interested in is to be able to control targetSoc. It's recommended setting is 80% but at some times you may want to charge to 100% and other times perhaps lower to get just enough juice. I haven't got access to a rooted phone, so unfortunately I do not know the exact call for this operation, but it is in the fingerprint files that @RutgerBeyen posted. |

@fredriklj there is now a way where you do not need a rooted Android anymore - it should also work with non-rooted devices. Is this something you have access to? |

I have an old Samsung Galaxy J7 from 2018 which I can play with, not sure however if it is up for running the latest app? It looks though like Rutger got it working in an emulator, I thought I'd ask him how he did. But, please, provide me the instructions and I'll see what I can do! You'll find my e-mail address on my profile. |

Thanks for checking this. I'm not sure exactly sure what you get/post from the endpoint, but do you see there is a possibility to make an educated guess, considering the output from the fingerprinting? In your vin_bmw_0.json there is this dictionary:

Following! Would like to give this a whirl testing wise if any further assistance is needed. Located in the EU, driving an iX with a load-balancing charging station that's dumber than the cobblestones it's standing next to. So some automation is definitely needed, especially with the new electricity regulations here. |
