Feature request: expose smart charging schedules (session targets)

[udouble]

Thanks for this integration — the mode, current and session entities work well on my two wallboxes.

In the Smappee app I use smart charging schedules: I enter how many extra kilometres the car needs and by when, and Smappee picks the cheapest moment to charge. That schedule is invisible in Home Assistant today: I can switch to SMART mode, but I cannot see or set the target.

Would it be possible to expose the schedule through the API — for example a sensor with the planned charge window and the target, and a service to set a target energy or number of kilometres plus a departure time?

That would let Home Assistant reason about the household peak (capacity tariff) while Smappee keeps deciding the exact moment.

it is not so difficult to GET the data from the API, but do you also want the 'change' the data? Because the PUT or PATCH or POST is not documented. We need some engineering around this ;-)

At this moment, I make everyday schedules to e.g. 300km of my car in SMART. Then, I use home assistant to actually control the state (I do not consider any smart schedules from Smappee).

Thanks, that helps. One thing I would like to understand better about your own setup. You said you create everyday schedules of e.g. 300 km in SMART, but that you do not rely on those schedules and control the state from Home Assistant instead. Why do you still set a schedule at all? Concretely: * Does the charger need a schedule to do anything while it is in SMART mode, so the schedule is really just a permission to charge? * Or is it a leftover from how you used to run it, and would plain/standard mode work just as well for what you do now? And a related one, because it decides how I would build this: if Home Assistant pauses charging while a SMART schedule says it should be charging, does the pause hold, or does the schedule resume charging at its next evaluation? I have not been able to find that documented anywhere. Context for why I ask: I want one place that knows the total load — two chargers plus a heat pump that is being installed at the end of the month — so I need to be sure Home Assistant has the last word over the charging moment.
