Without that, the total is always returned as zero. ### Note regarding firmware updates Some shelly devices get sold with an old firmware version installed. Some functionality will be missing. Since some point in 2021, shelly devices need to connect to the shelly cloud once to pull firmware updates. So please enable cloud access in the settings under "Internet & Security" -> "Cloud" and wait a few minutes.
