Hey Patrike,
Is there a way to set the Global Electricity Price (per kWh) via HTTP API?
Thank you!

There are no feature to set the value via API today.

You can set the price via the Rules, where you can use the Action called Set Property. You can for example use the rules to define different electricity prices depending on time or day. Rule actions can also be triggered via the API if needed.

I do understand this doesn't give as much flexibility as having an API method for setting an exact price from an external application. Please let me know if you still prefer the API method and I will look into supporting it when possible. Thanks!

Hey Patrike,

If you could add it to your ever expanding "to-do list" that would be awesome! That would help me a lot!

Here in Texas we have the option to go with a variable rate electricity plan that changes the price per kWh every 5 minutes. I'm currently monitoring the real-time price and have different rules and profiles setup in AM for my miners. For example, if the price per kWh goes crazy, up to say $1.00 /kWh, then my mine basically shuts down until the price drops. If the price goes negative (which happens often at night), the miners will overclock and go nuts!

One more thought that might open up a whole new world of possibilities for AM: What if you gave us the option to pass a variable into AM via API that could be used elsewhere in the application? Maybe just a few empty variable slots (Var1, Var2, Var3, etc.) then those variables could be used as "Triggers" inside a rule. Just a thought.

Thanks again!

The API method for electricity price should be possible to include in the near future as it's only a matter of exposing a feature already available.

Thanks for the suggestion about variables, that would make sense as well. Another concept available already today via the triggers are Miner Tags. You can set Tags on miners via the API and you can have trigger looking at certain tags.

A short update about the API method for setting the global electricity price:

This feature is available in Awesome Miner 6.5.3

You're awesome! Thank you SOOO much Patrike!!!!
