Blink appears to have stopped again for me too and it seems we’re in a game of whack a mole as they try to restrict third party access.
Thanks as ever to @fronzbot for keeping up with the fight.
Actually, this was a case of my library using the wrong 2FA endpoint. They had two active but I only found one of them last time around. Fix is already merged into the dev branch and will be in the 0.114 beta release.
EDIT - Here’s the PR: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/38027

Moved to 114 beta 0 and Blink is working again. After HA started, email came in for the 2FA. When in the UI, the notification was there that the migration was migrated and needed to be configured. In the integrations, the old Blink card was there and the new one was next to it with the configure button. Entered the pin and all worked. Only issue for me was that I had renamed most of the Blink display names before and I had to remove any old cards and recreate with the new versions of the cameras, temperatures, wifi strength, and control planels. Not a big price to pay…

Great to be working again, but also lovely to see the Mini cameras are now supported.
Just one thing I’ve noticed, I don’t seem to be able to arm/disarm the mini camera …
Thanks
Yeah right now if your Blink Mini camera is linked to a sync module, you can’t arm/disarm. Different endpoint than all the other cameras for some reason, and I haven’t figured it out yet. However, if you link the mini camera up as an individual device on your blink account, you’ll be able to arm/disarm as if it was its own sync module.
Also, thanks for the reminder about that. I currently don’t have an open issue regarding this so I’ll create one to remind myself to keep looking
Definitely great work with this - any idea when 0.114 will be available on the Docker Hub?
Anyone else noticing that the Blink “Verify Device Login” emails now come after every HA restart? I never actually need to enter the new PIN into the UI, but I keep getting them nevertheless. Just curious if that’s going to cause any issues with Blink or the integration itself down the road…

I removed from main group and re-added to a new group, deleted and re-added the integration but still not getting arm/disarm. Any suggestion on how to add the camera to avoid using sync module? Thanks.
@elyobelyob - if you re-add your camera as a standalone group in the Blink app, you will get a new alarm control panel in Home-Assistant to arm/disarm. If you’re not seeing that behavior, let me know.
@shim895 - yes, I noticed that as well. Normally you should only see them every 24hrs (known issue here) and not at restart. Shouldn’t cause any problems. Although it’s not what I intended, so I’ll look into it.

Found the Docker Hub Beta version -seems to work well 
I’m seeing the same behavior on restart. Just updated my docker container to beta 2 and on startup I received the 2FA email. HA doesn’t show any notifications and the integration appears to be fully working.
Thanks for this. Back up and running on beta.
It’s working with the last update but I am getting a blink email with a code on every reboot of HA.
I am ignoring it since the integration is working anyway.
Any idea how to avoid this email everytime ?
I updated to 0.114.0 and blink is working again, though I had to enter the pin code they emailed me. Now 24 hours later, I got another email with a new pin code. I didn’t restart HA, so I’m confused why I got it. The email says if I don’t enter the pin code within 40 minutes, it will deny the login attempt. Not sure if it will stop working after the 40 minutes or not.
