pyporscheconnectapi
A python library for Porsche Connect API
This library will let you access your car equipped with Porsche Connect. It does not work with the predecessor Porsche Car Connect. Porsche Connect is available for the following Porsche models:
- Boxster & Cayman (718)
- 911 (from 992)
- Taycan
- Panamera (from 2021, G2 PA)
- Macan (EV, from 2024)
- Cayenne (from 2017, E3)
You can also take a look here, select your model and see if your model has support for Porsche Connect: https://connect-store.porsche.com/
A Porsche Connect subscription alse needs to be active for it to work.
NOTE: This work is not officially supported by Porsche and functionality can stop working at any time without warning.
Installation
The easiest method is to install using pip3/pip (venv is also a good idea).
pip install pyporscheconnectapi
to update to the latest version
pip install pyporscheconnectapi -U
Setup will add a cli under the name porschecli, see below for usage.
CLI usage
A simple cli is provided with this library, it will cache tokens to a file to speed up invocations.
