I have about 12 govee lights that have worked in HA for a couple years. Now, the integration doesnt like to load.
Here are two things I recently did:
I added the govee outdoor lights, which work just fine in the app and in HA when the integration works.
while installing the above outdoor lights, i accidentally applied for a new API key in the app and then added it to the HA integration/replaced the old key (I have a feeling this is the issue somehow)
Ever since then, the govee integration randomly fails to start, but sometimes i can manually get it to reload. However, im yet to figure out why it wont stay stable. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
Thank you. Im struggling to find the log info regarding the Govee integration. When I search for govee in the logbook ‘entity’ field, nothing shows up. I havent done much log troubleshooting in a while, so it is likely my ignorance. I tried pulling logs from a govee light but it doesnt really tell me much other than saying ‘device became unavailable’ - i am need to delete the integration and add it back. It could also be a SSD hardware error, but i dont know how to check that in the logbook either.
If you have a direction to point me to, your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you, in advance, for your patience and excusing my lack of info.
If the logs aren’t to any help I would try removing the integration and re-adding it, see if that solves anything. I don’t use Govee myself so not familiar with the integration.
It’s convention around here to attribute the solution to the first person that put you on the right path or giving a full solution. This is important, since the tools of the forum will take one to the post with the solution.
