Here is someone for openhab who explain that viessman sent an email to explain they will activate a treshold for non official third party client.

From the coming week on, a threshold will become active that prevents from unauthorized use of the API. This will affect all third-party solutions, which can thereby no longer be used.
We are aware that the demand for APIs to our technologies for integration
into other solutions and third-party systems is increasing.
To provide you with an opportunity for this, we will launch a portal in the next two months for all developers to get access to our API. With the Viessmann Developer Portal , we intend to open ourselves up, release a documentation of the interface and co-develop new solutions together with you

Hi,
I hope you are right and they are just being prudent but the tone of the mail seems to suggest otherwise and it give me the feeling that Viessmann wants to take control back.
Also the 'threshold' mentioned sounds like a translation glitch and as the meaning is clearer in the following sentence, where they state that third party solutions won't work anymore.
As for their 'public' API, it could have a price attached to it - rather questionable considering it is our data - and on the other hand, judging from the ViCare app (meh), I wouldn't be surprised if it will turn out to be just a limited subset.
I would have to go through the documents to infer what data I have implicitly signed off to them and what GDPR has to say about it.
I am by far no expert, as I have just started looking into this as a 'project' to get back into coding (also driven by the frustration caused by the poor access to data), but alternative solutions gathering the data locally before being sent may be better, particularly if they rely on technology used by larger companies that Viessmann cannot afford to disappoint.
A small web server on the VitoConnect providing local connectivity would be great ...

There are actual versions released to cope with the threshold issue.
