Has anyone found a way to automate the daily authenticating?

Third party integrations Node-RED
1

I use the Alexa Routine Node, and it is great, but the daily authentication of my amazon account at “192.168.1.56:3456” in my browser is getting tedious.

Has anyone found a way to automate this? I thought about Auto Hot Key on my PC, but learning that is a whole new challenge to someone who barely understands YAML.

If it can run on another Windows machine then AutoIt is incredible simple to learn.

i cant take the credit for this but here is what i am using:

Rebel, that code seemed to do the trick! Thank you!

Is that an .au3 file?

rebel102285’s post seems to be a Node Red flow.

OK. I am not used to seeing Node Red flows prettified.

It is node red “code”. You go to the import window in NR - paste all that text in - and poof - it creates 3 nodes around a red banner. Really kool - and it works. I’ve rebooted my intel server - restarted HA couple times since I installed it - and so far the ssl session stays active.
