Disclaimer: I tried to solve this issue with ChatGPT - sadly it wasn’t providing useful solutions. It helped me tho to write down my issue.
Hello everyone,
I’m currently facing a frustrating issue with the Spotify Integration in Home Assistant. The main problem is that I’m stuck in a redirection loop where Home Assistant tries to redirect me to an external website for authentication, but I entered the wrong data during the setup, so I can’t proceed. Here’s what’s happening:
The Issue:
- Redirection Loop:
- I started the process to integrate Spotify into Home Assistant, but during the authentication phase, I entered the wrong data (incorrect API credentials).
- Since then, Home Assistant keeps trying to redirect me to the authentication page, but it always leads to the wrong page, and I can’t move forward.
- I get stuck at this redirection, and there’s no way to go back or stop the process from within the UI.
- Unable to Cancel or Go Back:
- The UI doesn’t give me an option to cancel or backtrack from the redirection process. Every time I refresh or try to log out and back in, I end up in the same loop.
- This is the step I am stuck on. From there on it redirects me to an invalid link
What I’ve Tried So Far:
- Attempting to Remove Spotify via the UI:
- I tried to remove the integration by going to Settings > Integrations, finding the Spotify integration, and selecting “Remove.” However, the removal process never completes because of the redirection issue mentioned above.
- Home Assistant CLI:
-
I also attempted to remove the integration using the CLI with the following command:
ha integration remove spotify
But I received an error:
Error: unknown command "integration" for "ha"
This command didn’t work, and it seems like the CLI doesn’t support this type of operation.
- CLI with
ha core config_entries remove
:
-
I tried to run:
ha core config_entries remove 01JGRZZTCN43FF1R6FX0QEE4Z6
But I got the following message:
Error: unknown command "integration" for "ha"
This indicates that the command is not recognized, and I’m still unable to remove the integration.
- Unable to Fully Remove Integration:
- Despite all of these attempts, I cannot fully remove Spotify from Home Assistant, and I continue to be stuck in this redirection loop.
- Manual Removal via File System:
- ChatGPT suggested to go into the Home Assistant file system, specifically the core.config_entries file, and looked for entries related to Spotify. I found the
config_entry_id
- However, it told me to delete everything related to Spotify from this document.
That would have been dozens of lines and I wasn’t sure where to start and where to end. As the suggestions from ChatGPT didn’t work up to this point, I wasn’t brave enough try to delete something I wasn’t sure about.
What I Need Help With:
- How can I stop the redirection loop and either cancel the Spotify setup or reset it to try again?
- Is there a way to completely remove the Spotify integration through the CLI or by editing the configuration files correctly? If so, how?
- Has anyone encountered this issue and found a solution?
I would greatly appreciate any help or advice!
