These guides describe the supported SMA data routes. Use the FTP procedure only for a compatible file or push setup, and use the API procedure when the required plant is available through the supported manufacturer service.
For a file-based route, verify the complete chain from logger and export schedule to received time series.
For FTP, verify the destination credentials, upload schedule, time zone, filename convention, and continuity of received files. For API access, verify the account permissions and plant identifier. In both cases, compare a complete day of power and energy data with the SMA source after setup.
