Template Config File has the following entry:

[SolarEdge]
ApiUrl=https://monitoringapi.solaredge.com/site/2410315/currentPowerFlow.json?api_key=API-KEY

I assume that from the SolarEdge Monitoring Admin page the location ID of the owned solar system needs to replace the "2410315" of the template.
I also assume that "API-KEY" needs to be replaced by the generated key from the SolarEdge Monitoring Admin page.
Nevertheless, it is not working :-(

Sorry for the late response. I didn't see your request before.
Probably the problem is, that your key holds special characters that need to be encoded in the API-Url. Please URL-encode your key at https://www.urlencoder.org/ (or any other) before pasting it into the config file.

I will change this in next release to have three settings:

• ApiUrl with placeholders only
• ApiKey that you can copy&paste from SolarEdge Monitoring Admin page
• LocationId (currently missing; Thanks for the hint!)
  Then I will do correct URL-encode in the code and you don't need to care about this.

Thanks a lot! I will give it a try soon.

Just released version 0.1.2 that fixes the issue with missing location id and URL encoding
