VRM API hasMains only available in the list of installations when request is not extended - alarm is only available in the extended

Hi!

Is it on purpose that hasMains attribute is missing from the extended query of installations on the VRM API? Is there an other way to get from that response?


In case of alarm the opposite is true, it is only in the extended request.


thanks

eliott

I don't see any mention of hasMains in https://docs.victronenergy.com/vrmapi/overview.html

@warwick You can't use hasMains to detect grid failure
