I tried to connect to home connect, the smart home system of Bosch and more. I started the wizard and filled in some API details but did not finish the wizard. Tonight I wanted to get further on it but the wizard does not start again, if I add home connect in the (add integration) i directly goes to a website. Can anyone help me to completely restart the wizard and remove everything that has, i asume, has been saved in the home connect config?
By the way, home connect is added to my integrations, so basicly is hanging in between…?
Step 1, add home connect in HA
After clicking i’m going directly to this page (Step 2)
And if i go back to HA, i got this message Step 3)
To finish this step go to external website (which is not accessable)
what helped me, is starting the procedure from a remote connection, instead of local. I use nabu case remote ui, as portforwarding isn’t an option to me.
I’m sharing what I found tonight because I was going crazy with the same issues trying to get the Home Connect integration working. After I tried it the first time, the integration wouldn’t show up anywhere (except for search when trying to add it new), and it would skip the dialog where you enter all the token and client key info and only show the final “click this link to finish the install”.
I also tried accessing my install from outside my network as someone else explained and lost a good long time trying that - it also didn’t work.
But here’s what did:
Go to Settings → Devices & Services. In the top right corner, click the three-dot menu (it’s above the three-dash menu) and look for “Application Credentials”. Click it, and look for the Home Connect credentials you first put in and delete the entry altogether. This will allow the system to take you back to the very beginning and re-enter your credentials when you’re trying to install the Home Connect integration.
One other thing, this may or may not be an issue but I read somewhere the Home Connect is twitchy about capital letter in some places (especially email addresses). I don’t know if this is why things failed for me the first time but I made sure to choose a name both in the Home Connection Application creation and in the Home Assistant Integration that had no capital letters and no spaces. This worked without any issues the 2nd time once I had deleted the credentials as described above.
I just thought that since I found this post in my search for answers, others might, too. I wished the answer had been posted here and hope it might help someone else in the future.
I have a similar problem. I registered with the Home Connect developer and created an application. I have the Client ID and secret data, I fill them in when creating the integration and then an error occurs
|error|unauthorized_client|
|---|---|
|error_description|client or redirection URI not authorized|
|state|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I can’t continue. If I want to add the integration again, I have to delete the OAuth. But unfortunately with the same result.
I suspect the URI, but I don’t understand it, I don’t know what the problem is.
I don’t use Nabu Casa, I have an open port, and I can’t add integrations either locally or remotely.
I have deleted the data many times and tried to install the integration from scratch, but always with the same disappointment. My email address in Home Connect is in lowercase, separated by a dot. For example [email protected]
Have you tried the Home Connect-Alt integration? You can install it via HACS. I didn’t have any issues connecting that version and I’ve read that there are a number of improvements that the Alt version offers over the OG. You’ll probably need another application for it in your Home Connect dev section. This is what I did. I currently have both connected (each via its own separate app interface/client ID/client secret)but the Alt version was definitely easier.
Edit: The Alt version also has great info on how to install. I learned a lot from reading that. Definitely check that out. I think that there had been some issues with the OAuth redirect not being correct on some links. Also, you have to make sure that you Home Assistant install is accessible via the homeassistant.local:8123 address, not just your internal IP address:port or the redirect won’t work properly.
Anyone having issues with home connect application…
First try to reset dishwasher. On my dishwasher it will reset if you press and hold for approximately 5 seconds start button. I have SMS4HVI33E model.
Then try to connect your dishwasher using mobile phone. Bosh aparently had a problem with samsung phones when connecting dishwasher to the cloud so if you did reset it and it still can’t connect try different phone.
When you connect dishwasher don’t use home connect integration as there is a better one called home connect local. I would suggest to people to use this integration as it is far better then home connect.
There is detailed howto on github page and I think everyone can follow it.
