Current position

[keesschollaart81]

Thanks for the Api, nice work!

I'm trying to get the current location of my car, is that in any way supported? The CarFinderService throws:

Exception: API error: {'errorCode': 'CF.security.9007', 'description': 'MBB Roles and Rights responded: 404 - Not Found'}

The CarFinderService requires special permissions for your account. At least here in germany I can't get any data from it. But I guess it would be possible to get the last parked position of the car since the official app also shows these information.

@keesschollaart81 I'm able to run something like this:

cfs = CarFinderService(api,vehicle)
print(str(cfs.find()))

This will show coordinates and parking time so it is probably not "live" while moving, but the parking position as noted by @davidgiga1993 As a note i live in sweden.

Hi davidgiga1993, I have tested it but some errors like below:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 46, in res = asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete( task ) File "/usr/lib/python3.5/asyncio/base_events.py", line 466, in run_until_complete return future.result() File "/usr/lib/python3.5/asyncio/futures.py", line 293, in result raise self._exception File "/usr/lib/python3.5/asyncio/tasks.py", line 239, in _step result = coro.send(None) File "test.py", line 35, in main account = AudiConnectAccount (user, password) File "/home/pi/.homeassistant/custom_components/audiconnect/audi_connect_account.py", line 30, in init self.logon_service.login(username, password) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/audiapi/Services.py", line 190, in login token = self.__login_request(user, password) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/audiapi/Services.py", line 220, in __login_request reply = self._api.post(self.url('/token'), data, use_json=False) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/audiapi/API.py", line 62, in post return self.__handle_error(r.json()) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/audiapi/API.py", line 68, in __handle_error raise Exception('API error: ' + str(error) + '\n' + error_msg) Exception: API error: invalid_grant expectedTenant:zh-CN

and I had modified the COUNTRY from DE to CN in “/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/audiapi/Services.py” , audiapi had been installed with “pip3 install audiapi” .

Thanks.

In the UK, I can get the car's position when it is locked but not when it is being driven

[davidgiga1993]

@jgardiner68 That's the expected behavior. If you don't have the valet package you can't get the realtime position of the car. Only the parking position.
