Poll the Fronius Solar API locally on a GEN24/Symo inverter over HTTP to read real-time power flow and per-device inverter data.

Steps

  1. Confirm the inverter's local IP/hostname on the same LAN and, on newer GEN24 firmware, first enable the 'Solar API' option in the inverter's local web UI (older Symo-generation devices generally have it enabled by default).
  2. Per the official 'Fronius Solar API V1' specification PDF published on fronius.com, call GET http://{inverter-ip}/solar_api/v1/GetPowerFlowRealtimeData.fcgi to read current site-level power flow (grid, PV, load, battery power).
  3. Call GET http://{inverter-ip}/solar_api/v1/GetInverterRealtimeData.cgi with query parameters like Scope=Device&DeviceId=1&DataCollection=CommonInverterData to read real-time per-inverter data (AC/DC power, voltage, current, energy counters).
  4. Poll these endpoints on a regular interval rather than opening a persistent connection — the Solar API is stateless request/response JSON over plain HTTP.
  5. For multi-device installations, enumerate DeviceId values (or use Scope=System for an aggregate) to pull data per inverter/component individually.
