v0.27.0-beta.1 - HTTP429 - Read the release notes...

on GitHub

⚠️ Pre-release Notice
This is a pre-release version. Please expect potential bugs. Enable debug logging if errors occur, and report issues by creating a new GitHub issue with as much relevant information as possible.

⚠️ Short Testing Cycle
This version has undergone only a very limited testing period. It is not recommended for use in production environments.

🛑 Breaking Changes

1. HTTP 429 Errors

• Mercedes-Benz recently introduced changes to the backend API, resulting in rate limits for certain resources (e.g., real-time updates). This required new token generation on a daily basis.
• To address this, a new login flow using your Mercedes-Benz username and password was implemented. These credentials are now used to recover automatically from such issues.
• Action required: After updating, restart Home Assistant and reauthenticate using your MB account credentials.
• The token creation tool is no longer needed.
• Note: HTTP 429 errors may still occur once per day. When this happens, a new login and automatic reload of the component will be triggered to return it to a valid state.

2. China Region Removed

• The China region has been removed from the configuration dialog.
• The last known working version for China is v0.22. You can download this version via HACS.
• If you'd like to contribute to the continued development for the China region, please refer to issue #339.

🐞 Other Fixes

• Resolved an issue where the recorder component could log errors such as:
  ERROR (Recorder) [homeassistant] Error doing job: Task was destroyed but it is pending!...
  (Occurred in rare scenarios.)

• Adjusted the default precision for tire pressure sensors to 0.0 for better compatibility with Bar units.
  (This is still a work in progress and will be further refined.)

🔧 Chore

• Two new sensors for monitoring the WebSocket connection are now available.
  These are disabled by default — enable them via the integration settings page if needed.
