MySkoda nodes for Node-RED

Simple nodes for getting car information from the MySkoda platform and sending remote commands to your vehicle.

v2.2.0 - Shared credentials via config node (enter email/password once, use in all nodes). Includes complete example flow with all operations.

v2.0.0 - Complete rewrite using the new MySkoda API (replaces the legacy Skoda Connect / VW Group API that stopped working). All Skoda vehicles supported by the MySkoda app are compatible.

Requirements

• Node.js >= 16
• A MySkoda account (the same credentials you use in the MySkoda mobile app)
• Your vehicle must be visible and functional in the MySkoda app

Installation

cd ~/.node-red
npm install node-red-contrib-myskoda

Configuration

1. Add any myskoda-get or myskoda-set node to your flow
2. In the node config, click the pencil icon next to Account to create a new MySkoda Account config node
3. Enter your MySkoda email and password once — all nodes sharing the same config will use these credentials

Usage: myskoda-get node

Select your MySkoda Account. Any input triggers the API call. Output is a JSON object with information for each vehicle in your account.

Always returned:

• Vehicle info (model, nickname, connectivity generation)
• Vehicle status (doors, windows, lights, odometer)
• Driving range (fuel level, battery SoC, estimated range)

Optional (select in node config):

• Parking position
• Air conditioning status
• Charging information (EV/PHEV)
• Maintenance report

Example output

{
  "vehicles": [
    {
      "vin": "TMBJXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
      "info": { ... },
      "status": { ... },
      "drivingRange": { ... },
      "positions": { ... },
      "airConditioning": { ... },
      "charging": { ... },
      "maintenance": { ... }
    }
  ]
}

Example flow

A complete example flow with all operations is included. Import it via: Menu → Import → Examples → node-red-contrib-myskoda → complete-flow

Usage: myskoda-set node

Select your MySkoda Account and a command from the dropdown. Each command requires msg.vin with the vehicle VIN.

Available commands

| Command | msg.payload | Other required fields | |---------|-------------|----------------------| | Start Air Conditioning | - | - | | Stop Air Conditioning | - | - | | Set Target Temperature | number (Celsius, e.g. 21.5) | - | | Start Window Heating | - | - | | Stop Window Heating | - | - | | Start Charging | - | - | | Stop Charging | - | - | | Set Charge Limit | number (%, e.g. 80) | - | | Lock Vehicle | - | msg.spin (S-PIN) | | Unlock Vehicle | - | msg.spin (S-PIN) | | Honk and Flash | - | msg.latitude, msg.longitude | | Flash | - | msg.latitude, msg.longitude | | Wake Up Vehicle | - | - |

Example input

{
  "vin": "TMBJXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
  "payload": 22
}
