How do we start the zwavejs migration wizard?

Great release!
Special mentions for:
Yeelights, which are just better than ever after every release!
The new Tuya which is much better than the old integration and mustâve taken a lot of work to bring to HA, now we await for local control!
Ans also the Statistics panel for fixing data issues!
If you are using the Drayton Wiser integration from HACS, you need to upgrade to the latest version before upgrading HA. The previous version of the Wiser integration was using that ruamel.yaml that was removed.
does the Tuya intergration also supports energy/power for switches?
I get the following error:
2021-10-06 21:04:19 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.config_entries] Error occurred loading configuration flow for integration tuya: cannot import name 'AuthType' from 'tuya_iot' (/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/tuya_iot/__init__.py)
You have an old version of tuya-iot-py-sdk in use.
Start by checking your custom itnegrations, the core integration require version â0.5.0â
thank you for the answer. Does it require delete of Tuya 2?
From the yet to be merged doc PR:
The migration wizard is available from the zwave integration configuration panel in the GUI.

Typo on the blog entry âNEATGEARâ instead of âNETGEARâ
Is this meant to be the previously officially supported âopenzwave betaâ one 
Edit: I would love to see that! I have a long to-do list with this in the top 3. But holding me back due to a lot of renaming entities and change on error.
When I try to add the SwitchBot integration, it results in a âfailed to connectâ errorâŚis this happening for anyone else? I am able to add other integrations without issue. 
If you have existing Z-Wave devices capable of using S2 already paired with Home Assistant before this update, you will need to repair those to let them use the new S2 feature.
By repair, you mean I have to remove and re-pair them? Thereâs no magic repair button? I remember it was recommended to not use security features as it caused a lot of lag in the Z-Wave network, which I also noticed significantly myself with the old default integration which I still use.

Yes, remove and add.
Thereâs no magic repair button?
No. If you are using zwavejs2mqtt there is a fairly involved workaround to upgrade nodes to S2 by replacing failed nodes. Better allow for node transition from S0 to S2 ¡ Issue #3227 ¡ zwave-js/node-zwave-js ¡ GitHub
I remember it was recommended to not use security features as it caused a lot of lag in the Z-Wave network, which I also noticed significantly myself with the old default integration which I still use.
S0 has much more overhead (3x times) than insecure communications. S2 has very little overhead compared to insecure, so itâs not even worth bothering to purposefully add a device insecurely. There are other benefits to S2 besides the encrypted communications (quoting AlCalzone, node-zwave-js developer):
- You get feedback when the node couldnât decode the command (unlike with S0)
- Some devices start using supervision when included with S2, so they can retry important commands like âmy battery is emptyâ
- Garbled bits are impossible, so no more random sensors because of transmission errors
There is also a class of devices that wonât work at all without S2 inclusion, such as some alarm keypads (Ring).

Always nice to see HA improving. However, I am still hoping someone will improve the Siemens Home Connect integration. I was advised to report the error at Github but itâs not just one error. The integration is just not stable and needs some serious attention.
Second issue I have is that since the last update, so the one before this one, the zwave lightbulb icon is broken. Anyone else has this issue? You can switch a light on and off (so no impact) but the icon does not show the actual lightbulb anymore. Itâs just empty.
After todayâs update, the energy price sensor shows many places. Is it an update error, or can it be fixed to 2 decimal places as it was before the update?
Trying to setup the new Tuya integration. Setting up an IoT account, but on creating a new project I get an error âäźĺčżćâ which translates to âMembership expiredâ.
Rolling back because Lovelace Dashboard refuses to load. Integrations settings page could also not be loaded to turn off some custom integrations in an attempt to determine which one is failing.
Update:
This was caused by the Trakt upcoming media card custom integration. After disabling I was able to succesfully update. Issue has been created.
Great job again! I love to see the new features. But I am curious a bit that the siren will be supported by the Tuya API?
I have a DSC Siren which a non ESP chip, so I cannot use it with Tasmota. Any chance that it will work at some point?
@fuzzymistborn, I am/was the last one who used the TrackR integration. I didnât even know about that they stopped the Android and Apple apps, probably because I registered with an email address what I havenât looked at for ages.
But actually it is better that they shut down the API. Iâve just came across this article searching for what has happened with TrackR at all.

Now I just need a new solution, probably ESPHome to refurbish the device and use it just as a presence sensor.
Does the new Tuya support colour override for bulbs, like the original Tuya? My colour bulbs just show as white bulbs in Tuya so itâs kind of important.
