 Once configured, the integration connects to your Growatt account. If you have multiple plants, you can select which one to integrate. It will then create entities for your plant and inverters, allowing you to monitor energy production and control settings in Home Assistant.

 ## Authentication
 
 The integration supports two authentication methods:
 
 - **Username and password**: Use your Growatt account credentials to authenticate.
-- **API token**: Use an API token for more secure and stable authentication using the official Growatt API (only MIN/TLX inverters currently supported).

+The classic API (username/password authentication) has strict rate limits that can result in your account being locked out for up to 24 hours if these limits are exceeded. To avoid this issue, use one of the following options:
 
-- **For MIN/TLX inverter users**: Use API token authentication instead, which uses the official Growatt V1 API that does not have this limitation.
-- **For all other users**: Avoid all unnecessary integration reloads, as a reload triggers re-login via Growatt classic API.
