Hello all,
I’m having issues when building new esp devices. I am using the web interface and then discovering in esphome. After installing firmware in esphome, I auto discover in home assistant. At no point am I ever asked of given an api key for the connection between home assistant and esphome.
Also the api section of the esp code has no encryption: line or the code.
Can someone help me figure out what I am doing wrong and how to remedy?
To take this a step further. Do you even have to use the api encryption lines to use the esphome device with home assistant?
And lastly is there a way to get the encryption key to regenerate?
The reason I ask the follow ups is the controls seem to be working properly in home assistant for the esp device even though I don’t have the api information in the config.
I would prefer to have the api information in the config if possible.
Thank you all!!
