How to connect monoprice door sensor through Tuya?

HA newbie here. Just got a cheap door sensor from monoprice so I can turn off the thermostat if the door is open.

I’m having issues getting HA to see the sensor. I use the tuya app/service for an outlet and a wall switch with no issue, but the sensor won’t show up in my entity list.

From other threads, I understand that tuya can be set up with a cloud config or locally if you have the device id/key. I’m using the cloud config. I’ve tried restarting the server multiple times and even removing the tuya section from the configuration.yaml and then replacing it… no good.

Here’s my config.

tuya:
  username: MYUSERNAME
  password: MYPASSWORD
  country_code: 1

Has anyone else has this issue? Is there something else I should try?

Facing the exact same issue here. Did you get any solutions?

Sort of, but not really.
A friend and I figured out a low key hack where you can set up DNS spoofing and mimic the authentication server to force the sensor to register with a local MQTT server instead of the Tuya servers during the set up process. The MQTT messages we got were encrypted, but we were able to figure out what they meant because portions of the message were always the same whenever the door was closed and whenever it was opened.
I haven’t actually implemented it in my HA yet because it would be pretty janky. So yeah… sort of, but not really.
