400 Client Error: Bad Request for url

I am having trouble getting this up and running. It appears to be logging in and getting my channels. But fails to get usage data. A thought I have is that its because I setup the app with solar and that is where channel "MainsFromGrid" is coming from but not sure what to do to fix it. Any thoughts?

I agree, it appears to be something related to that specific channel. As a temporary troubleshooting step, is it possible for you to remove that channel from the Emporia account or app, and then re-start Vuegraf to see if it gets passed that problem?

Yes, I am getting data for all connected sensors and the last three are smart plugs. The solar stuff is circuits 3,4,5,and 6. I have an electric clothes dryer as circuit 1 with a 2.0 multiplier and circuit 2 is a bathroom, circuits 7 and 8 are feeds to my Garage. the garage is not seen on the mains as they are split off at the power meter, separate from the Main to the house. No dedicated Solar monitor.

Ok thanks. I'll leave it as-is for now since it's able to fetch the data at this point. It's possible that this is a bug with a new Emporia change so I don't want to dive much deeper yet. If it continues we can check with @magico13 to see if he's got an idea on what's going on. He wrote the library that parses the responses from Emporia.

Thank you very much.

[BluGeni]

This is working with the update you did. Thank you!

Just an FYI I pushed an update to PyEmVue (0.12.3) so if you end up passing MainsToGrid or MainsFromGrid into get_chart_usage it'll just return empty since those virtual channels don't work along that endpoint. That should hopefully avert this issue, we're having similar issues in the home assistant plugin with these virtual channels. They only exist for users with solar installed apparently and just showed up in the last week or so.
