I am maintaining the ruby gem to upload output from the SAJ Solar Inverter to pvoutput. I noticed today that when using /service/r2/addbatchoutput.jsp
I get a Bad Post: Forbidden 403: Donation mode
error back, the data I post is very simple “data=20210701%2C4000%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%3B20210702%2C7400%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C”. This worked earlier, did something change on pvoutput?
Yes, the Add Batch Output API has been deprecated and redirects to Add Output which now allows multiple outputs, but only in donation mode.
Thanks for the response, found the updated API documentaton, making some changes to update the pvoutput and saj_collector gems
@bankstownbloke why is batching only allowed in donation mode now? I can’t imagine that helps with the load on the server as people will start to upload data one day at a time if they don’t have donation mode, which just means more requests for pvoutput to handle
