Sensor name is 'sensor.inverter_none' about goodwe-sems-home-assistant

Great! I will close this issue for now, since I don't know if we can fix this on our side. :)

Ah, I just read the other issue (#27) where you gave instructions on how to debug by adding extra logs.

It seems the API keeps returning None as the name for the inverter in the invert_full playload:

"invert_full":{
   "sn":"13000DSN164W0184",
   "powerstation_id":"da550800-01de-4062-9337-03f193b5b24e",
   "name":"None", <------------------------------------------------------------ 👀
   "model_type":"GW3000D-NS"
   ...
}

Not sure if this could be an issue with other users as well?
Especially considering you've added support for multiple inverters, it might be better to change this the sensor name to something that is guaranteed to be unique (e.g. sn).

Bedankt voor deze integratie trouwens! ❤️

Thanks for reporting.
It should indeed show the field you're referencing for the name. Home assistant should pick a unique name if there is a clash, just as Light 2 for example. However I did not test this, since I only have a single inverter. (Although mocks and unit tests would allow us to test this of course...)
The unique id, is the serial number, which is what HA uses internally for uniqueness.

As a work around you can always change the device id and name in the HA gui yourself. :) Since it is internally using SN, it should update just fine. :)

That's a good suggestion indeed, I'll change it via HA.

Guess I am not surprised about the API behaving like this... the Goodwe SEMS API & portal seem to be of really poor quality unfortunately :(

Thanks again :)
