Installation

Removing old versions

If you were previously running the test version based on the VW WeConnect ID version, then this must be completely uninstalled prior to installing this version. You can do this by entering Settings -> Devices & Services, opening the small cog next to the Volkswagen WeConnect integration and select "delete". Then remove all files from /custom_components/volkswagen_we_connect_id and reboot HA to complete the job. Don't worry, once you reinstall, everything should come back extactly as it was!

HACS

The easiest way to add this to your Homeassistant installation is using HACS and install the "Cupra WeConnect" integration. Once done, follow the instructions under Configuration below to set it up.

(If the integration doesn't appear, you can manually add https://github.com/daernsinstantfortress/cupra_we_connect as a custom repository. Once done, you can search for "Cupra" and the integration should show up in HACS, allowing installation.)

Manual

  1. Using the tool of choice open the directory (folder) for your HA configuration (where you find configuration.yaml).
  2. If you do not have a custom_components directory (folder) there, you need to create it.
  3. In the custom_components directory (folder) create a new folder called cupra_we_connect.
  4. Download all the files from the custom_components/cupra_we_connect/ directory (folder) in this repository.
  5. Place the files you downloaded in the new directory (folder) you created.
  6. Follow the instructions under Configuration below.

Using your HA configuration directory (folder) as a starting point you should now also have this:

custom_components/cupra_we_connect/__init__.py
custom_components/cupra_we_connect/manifest.json
custom_components/cupra_we_connect/sensor.py
.. etc

Configuration

It's important that you first use the app, connect the app to the car and use it at least once. After that enable the integration on the integration page in Home Assistant with your e-mail and password that you use to login into the app. Wait a couple of seconds and 1 or more devices (your cars) with entities will show up.
