The `solaredge` platform uses the [SolarEdge Monitoring API](https://www.solaredge.com/sites/default/files/se_monitoring_api.pdf) to allow you to get details from your SolarEdge solar power setup and integrate these in your Home Assistant installation.

To integrate it, you need your installation ID and an API key. You can get these by logging in to your [SolarEdge web portal](https://www.solaredge.com). Note: if your portal is not in English, the labels will be different.
The SolarEdge Monitoring API has a daily rate limit of 300 requests. In order to stay under this limit, and allow for some additional requests, the `solaredge` platform will update the site overview every 15 minutes.
