SolarEdge Local

The solaredge_local integrationIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] uses the local API available on some SolarEdge Inverters to allow you to get details from your SolarEdge solar power setup and integrate these into your Home Assistant installation.

Only specific models support the local API. The local API is available on inverters that do not have an LCD character screen. You can also check the datasheets if in the section “Additional Features”, sub-section “Inverter Commissioning” is present the following line “With the SetApp mobile application using built-in Wi-Fi access point for local connection”. These inverters also have a part number that ends with a 4. For example: SEXXK-XXXXXBXX4 or SEXXXXH-XXXXXBXX4

You can check if the local API works by finding the IP address of your inverter and visiting it in a browser. If it supports the local API, you’ll see an HTML page with the SolarEdge logo and a “Commissioning” menu.

Warning

Recent firmware updates have disabled the local API on many inverters. Please enter the IP address of your inverter in a browser before attempting to use this integration. If the local API is enabled, you’ll see a web page with the SolarEdge logo and a “Commissioning” menu. See this issue and this issue for additional details.

If your inverter does not support the local API, you can use the cloud based version
