# Adding the integration
## <a name="addon"></a>for Grocy add-on

## First steps <a name="addon"></a>for Grocy add-on
The configuration is slightly different for those who use the [official Grocy add-on](https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-grocy) from the add-on store.

1. If you haven't already done so, install Grocy from the add-on store
2. In the 'Configuration' section of the add-on config, input `9192` in the host field - see [screenshot](#screenshot). Save your changes and restart the add-on.
3. Install [HACS](https://hacs.xyz/)
4. Go to Community > Store > Grocy
5. Install the Grocy integration
6. Restart Home Assistant
7. Go to Grocy > Wrench icon > Manage API keys > Add
8. Copy resulting API key
9. In the HA UI go to "Configuration" -> "Integrations" click "+" and search for "Grocy"
10. Fill out the information according to [this instruction](#integration-configuration).
11. You will now have a new integration for Grocy. Some or all of the entities might be disabled from the start.

1. If you haven't already done so, install Grocy from the add-on store.

The api url should be in the form below. If you use an SSL certificate you should have `https` and also check the box. Do **not** have a trailing slash at the end of the url and do not have the port in the url. It should work with for example a duck dns address as well, but you still have to access it via a port, and the above instructions for the url still apply.
## URL
The Grocy url should be in the form below (start with `http://` or `https://`) and point to your Grocy instance. If you use a SSL certificate you should have `https` and also check the "Verify SSL Certificate" box. Do **not** enter a port in the url field. Subdomains are also supported, fill out the full url in the field.

## API key
Go to your Grocy instance. Navigate via the wrench icon in the top right corner to "Manage API keys" and add a new API key. Copy and paste the generated key.

**(This component will not currently work if you have an install where you don't use a port, as long as [this issue](https://github.com/SebRut/pygrocy/issues/121) is not resolved)**
## Port
It should work with for example a Duck DNS address as well, but you still have to access it via a port, and the above instructions for the url still apply.
- If you have configured the [Grocy add-on](#addon) as described, use port 9192 (without https). Either be sure the port is open in your router or use your internal Home Assistant address.
- If you have configured an [external Grocy](#both) instance and not sure, use port 80 for http or port 443 for https. Unless you have set a custom port for Grocy.
