Debug logs

In the log's I see this message:
DirectLease appears to have blocked your IP. Your options are:1) Contact tankservice-block@app-it-up.com for further support. 2) Change your WAN IP address or use a VPN. 3) Use a proxy server to connect.

But Why should it being blocked only by updating the integration. Accessing Directlease from a Laptop thru the same internet line is working OK (should be comming from the same IP address)

This is what is is also showing.
older versions are also not running anymore (Tried :11.3 and 11.1)

Yes, the provider has blocked the connection because you polled the source too frequently.

It was raised on the forums, unfortunately there is no fix for this.

I did mention here that I do not recommend using the "workaround" for a previous issue.

I allready disabled the workaround and the intergration was still working. Only after the update it stopped. But if blokked, I have no idea how to get my Ip deblocked. (send a mail to the mentioned address, but no reaction....yet) ⁣BlueMail voor Android downloaden ​ Op 27 nov 2024 15:04, om 15:04, Jordan Harvey ***@***.***> schreef:

This uses the API for the mobile app, so while retrieving a list of places is identical, getting station information is different because the website returns image files instead of the raw data.

What's happening is that there are too many requests being sent to the mobile API endpoint for the individual stations, I could build a proxy service for this that would cache station data to overcome the issue, but that comes at a cost to run.

Let me know if you get a response, but be warned, this integration was built without their involvement at all etc. and reverse engineered like life360 etc. was. You might get a more helpful response by saying that their mobile app isn't working.

[Rotil66]

I will see if they will respond and let you know. But I don't expect much from them. Is there another provider I couldnuse in the nederlands?? ⁣BlueMail voor Android downloaden ​ Op 27 nov 2024 15:34, om 15:34, Jordan Harvey ***@***.***> schreef:

Hi Jordan, I just git the very customer friendly reaction that directlease will do everything in their power to prevent people to retrieve data in any kind of way outside their app in what they say is illegal. So unfortunately I have deleted the intergration because I cannot use it anymore. Also don't want to if thus is the reply from a company. A pitty but I will look for another way. Of course this is nothing to blame you, because you can't do anything about this.

I've actually started a conversation with them regarding this and they are open to helping us.

Leave it with me, I'll work with directlease so we can all get what we want.

Maybe ANWB fuel price platform can be used as a source of data instead of DirectLease

Thanks for the info, I'll see what I can come up with DirectLease (or 'App It Up') first.

Understandably they don't like us accessing how we're currently accessing it because there is a cost associated with getting the data.

Nevertheless we appreciate your work for the community and like to discuss how we can find a better way to support the HA tweakers with our data.

Great, I will wait if there will be a solution in the future. Thanks for the great work. Kind Regards ! ⁣BlueMail voor Android downloaden ​ Op 29 nov 2024 20:48, om 20:48, Jordan Harvey ***@***.***> schreef:

Is there a possibility to get the data from:
https://www.zuinigtanken.nl/tankstation-in-de-buurt/

I have it in a Webpage Card for my area for quick viewing.

[pantherale0]

Hi,

No, the data source isn't overly complete (a few random stations I've selected don't return a price).

Anyway, DirectLease will pick this up in the new year with us. There are some changes I need to implement first.
