How to connect your FoxESS battery to Battery Coach
Battery Coach reads your battery's daily totals from FoxESS Cloud: solar made, energy charged and discharged, and grid use. It can't change any settings. You give access with an API key from your own FoxESS account.
Steps
- Sign in to your FoxESS Cloud account at foxesscloud.com with the account that owns your inverter.
- Open User Profile, then API Management, and generate an API key.
- Copy the whole key.
- In Battery Coach, open your home's Battery tab, paste the key and choose Connect FoxESS.
- If your account has more than one inverter, pick the one with the battery. Your recent history loads straight away, then updates every night.
If it doesn't work
- "Key not accepted": copy it again in full, with no spaces at either end.
- No inverter found: your installer may have registered the system under their account. Ask them to add it to yours.
- To remove access, delete the key in FoxESS Cloud, or choose Disconnect on the Battery tab.
Battery Coach does this from your own data and re-checks every month.
Check your plan and battery with Battery CoachGeneral information, not financial advice. Check plan details on the retailer's Energy Fact Sheet before switching.
