Blink component issues after update 2021.3.3

filco · March 12, 2021, 10:02pm

Hi,
I recently updated HASS to version 2021.3.3 and I start getting this error when I try to run scripts involving the Blink camera component.
Can someone help me?
Thanks in advance

Hi,

I have same issue, my Script is not more working, so no more pictures of my blink cameras will be created.

hazematic · March 13, 2021, 10:28am

I had also issues with Blink and 2021.3.3. Upgrading to 2021.3.4 did the trick for me.

luk1 · March 13, 2021, 10:41am

Did the trick for you means it works again?

filco · March 13, 2021, 10:57am

Unfortunately upgrading to 2021.3.4 did not solve my issue

luk1 · March 13, 2021, 11:14am

I upgraded to 2021.3.4, removed and installed “blink” integration again, works fine for me now. thx.

hazematic · March 13, 2021, 11:27am

Yes, I removed Blink, upgraded to 2021.3.4 and reinstalled Blink. This solved my issues.

jmiheve · March 13, 2021, 11:57pm

Upgrading to 2021.3.4 and then removing and reinstalling Blink fixed it for me as well.

Oddly enough, I was able to trigger the camera and turn on motion detection from HA with no problem (verified using the app). It was just updating the picture in HA that didn’t work.

cvo · March 14, 2021, 1:15am

I’m running into the same issue. I upgraded from 2021.3.2 to 2021.3.4 and have removed/readded Blink several times with various combinations of restarting core and the whole host to no avail.

I’m able to get camera data but camera images on my dashboard aren’t loading:

I’m getting the same error:

Yeah looks like there’s currently an issue with image retrieval. Blink probably changed an API endpoint again (shocking…) so a fix will have to be found and rolled into the library.

dmauro · March 15, 2021, 8:27pm

Ugh! @fronzbot any idea when you think this might get fixed?

fronzbot · March 15, 2021, 8:59pm

No clue unfortunately. I’ve been light on free time lately

dmauro · March 16, 2021, 3:29pm

Understood… these breaks seem to come way too often If there’s anything I can do to help, let me know.

dmauro · April 23, 2021, 3:20pm

@fronzbot … find any time lately?

BTW why don’t I see a “buy me coffee” or Patreon link for you!!

Doemer_Burns · March 8, 2022, 5:57pm

seems like this is happening again one year later. I never experienced this issue for the last 6 Month but it started last night. Are you having the issue as well?

Regards,

Doemer

epl2005 · March 8, 2022, 7:06pm

I’m experiencing the same issue

mazzy · March 23, 2022, 12:41pm

experiencing the same issue here.

filco · April 1, 2022, 12:36pm

Has anyone found a solution by chance?
I am still experiencing this issue.

MarkusJ · April 1, 2022, 2:03pm

As far as I understand the relevant GitHub repos this issue has been fixed a few days ago and waits to be integrated into a Home Assistant update. The problem was caused by a change on Blink’s side.

roscoe · July 16, 2022, 5:02pm

Picked up a new blink doorbell on prime day and have this issue. Does anyone know if it was addressed and a fix merged in April ?
