Quick Start Guide
Get Solar of Things running in Home Assistant in under 5 minutes.
Prerequisites
- ✅ Home Assistant 2023.6+
- ✅ Active account at solar.siseli.com
Step 1 — Find Your Station ID (2 min)
- Open https://solar.siseli.com and log in.
- Press F12 → Network tab → refresh the page (Ctrl+R).
- Click any request to
solar.siseli.com. - In the Payload tab, find
stationId— a long number, usually 18 digits.
Your User ID is your login account name (not an email address, and not a number). Your Station ID looks like
423564214316007425.⚠️ The Station ID is not a serial number. Do not use the number printed on your inverter or WiFi dongle, and do not use a plant/registration code shown in the portal UI — those are often a different length (20 digits or more) and will not work. The only value that works is the
stationIdfrom the Network payload shown above. Any length is accepted at setup; the integration does not require exactly 18 digits.
