I’m missing HACS in my side bar, and cannot seem to get into it anymore. I’m also getting the error in the log below. I can’t figure out what is causing this or how to fix. Any thoughts on how to fix?

[GitHub returned 401 for https://api.github.com/rate_limit] - Could not load HACS!
I’ve been running HACS for quite a long time now without an issue, so I would have had to generate one at one point. However, I’ve been looking within HA for where I’d be able to check this, and I can’t seem to figure out how to double check without uninstalling / reinstalling HACS. Any thoughts on what my next steps might be?
Super sorry guys, but I went to the hacs.xyz page, and I’m not getting anywhere. There’s very little on the site that I’m seeing to assist with this. It’s been a year or so since I installed it originally, and I’ll have to Google how to get a new token from Github (which should be simple), but for the life of me, I can’t figure out where to put the token once I get it. Really appreciate the help.
You can generate a new token from this page on GitHub. You can delete your existing token there as well.
To enter your new token it depends on how you configured HACS initially. There are two different ways you could have set it up, either YAML or UI.
If it was YAML look in your configuration.yaml file for something like this
hacs:
token: 12345678
And then change the token and restart Home Assistant (from Configuration > Server Controls).
If you configured HACS via the user interface, go to Configuration > Integrations, delete HACS from there, then just re-add the integration again this time using your new token.
Thanks so much Sean. There’s been a few times now where HA (or critical integrations for my personal system) has stopped working in one way or another, and I’ve nearly given up on it. If it wasn’t for the community support like this, I’d be long gone. So, thank you so much. HA on my end lives to see another day!
