• Setup a forward rule on my router for 443 → 8123 (keeping the 8123 → 8123 rule that existed already)
• Set the Access Token URI to https://homeassistant.mydomain.com/auth/token
• Leave Your Web Authorization URI as https://homeassistant.mydomain.com:8123/auth/authori

Life saver

On my side i just:

1. Setup a forward rule on my router for 443 → 8126 (mine was like this following some video) (keeping the 8126 → 8126rule that existed already)
2. Set the Access Token URI to https://homeassistant.mydomain.com/auth/token
3. Leave Your Web Authorization URI as https://homeassistant.mydomain.com/auth/authori (without 8216)

I’m not using cloudflare, but I am using port 40390 as my external port. I’ve tried everything and I can’t link it to my account. I am totally lost on what to do. I have a mikrotik router so I can really make any firewall rule.

The external port has to be 443. No if, ands or buts!

Are you saying you cannot create a port forwarding rule on your firewall?
If so, you are SOL…

My solution was that my ISP blocks port 443. So I was doing everything correct, it’s just blocked. I will have to find another way.

If “Amazon stipulates token uri must be on port 443” as per Requirements for Account Linking for Alexa Skills | Alexa Skills Kit then these instructions at Home Assistant - Amazon Alexa Smart Home Skill must be incorrect…

Cloudflare tunnel?
