New Neato Integration Installation Guide (OAuth2 for HA version 2021.1)

alexives · January 8, 2021, 5:49pm

This was happening for me when I was adding the integration while browsing from a different url (my internal address) than I had in my callback url (my external address). Not sure if that helps.

DeastinY · January 8, 2021, 7:00pm

Good idea, sadly didn’t help

I also don’t have any external IP.
It’s all internal, but I was browsing on 10.7.0.x and had homeassistan.lan in the neato config.

dshokouhi · January 8, 2021, 7:12pm

make sure the URL you are using to access HA matches the redirect URI that you used

DeastinY · January 8, 2021, 7:31pm

yeah did that, but no help for me

MarkWattTech · January 8, 2021, 8:14pm

Are you adding the integration while logged into your HTTPS accessible Home Assistant instance?

dshokouhi · January 8, 2021, 11:22pm

First error is caused by neatos API returning invalid data, check the status of the botvac in the neato app and possibly reconnect it to the app. The 500 error not sure about, double check your URL’s that you are using to access HA and the ones you entered for the redirect URI and ensure they match.

MarkWattTech · January 8, 2021, 11:27pm

Keep beating me to it

prankousky · January 9, 2021, 10:42am

I created my neato credentials by using my nabu.casa URL. I also made sure to be logged into Home Assistant via this nabu.casa URL instead of through my local instance.

This allowed me to create the client_id and client_secret in the neato developers portal.

Then I created this in my packages folder

neato:
  client_id: !secret neato_clientid
  client_secret: !secret neato_secret

When I restart Home Assistant, I get a notification that one integration is not set up correctly. When I click to install it, I get

please wait while installing integration
pause
component is not configured correctly. please read documentation.

The text might be slightly different, my Home Assistant is in German language.

I deleted the previous neato botvac integration, restarted once again, and installed the integration from scratch. The same error will be shown.

I tried both installing a fresh neato botvac integration from my local instance and my nabu.casa instance to make sure this was not the reason for the error. It was not.

What else can I try?

MarkWattTech · January 9, 2021, 12:50pm

Hey.

That all sounds correct . Have you double checked that your id and secret are correct and that you are running the latest version of Home Assistant?

DeastinY · January 9, 2021, 2:43pm

yeah

michaelg · January 9, 2021, 8:36pm

Same for me. Also on the same domain as the redirect url.

After going to the neato site and being redirected to home assistant, I get a blank page.

michaelg · January 9, 2021, 8:47pm

It’s solved for me now.
I had an old neato vacuum cleaner in my neato account registered. That vacuum cleaner was not connected.
After removing the old device from my account, it worked.

OakLines · January 10, 2021, 3:14am

Genius - I’ve been going in circles with this and your tip was spot on!
Thank you!

RoadkillUK · January 10, 2021, 9:52am

I’ve been watching this thread over the last couple fo days … Am I right in thinking that without Nabu Casa, or SSL I won’t be able to use the neato component?

Thanks.

MarkWattTech · January 10, 2021, 3:37pm

Without SSL it is now unfortunately a no go

nullnullnul · January 15, 2021, 8:17am

Yes, you are right. But if you are looking a quick fix, generating SSL certificate (and placing the files to right directory) for your local network and installing / configuring NGINX Home Assistant SSL proxy to ports 8123/443 whatever from the addon-store is not that difficult.

laffez · January 16, 2021, 4:58pm

I have to admit that this is frustrating me! I have had a nice and working integration that I loved that I can no longer easily use? My setup is:

No public exposure
I have connected through http://192.168.x.y:8123 on the internal network
I do not use Nabu-casa
I do not have a domain-name for my internal network
For some reason, https://192.168.x.y:8123 does not work, and I don’t know how to make it world.

Can someone make a step-by-step guide on how to make Neato working again? I don’t understand this comment about my instance not having to be exposed to the internet. Sorry @nullnullnul what you are proposing is something I don’t understand.

I am pondering if I have to:

get a domain name
use let’s encrypt
expose it externally
setup neato
revert the exposure from step 3)
That is however quite some work for someone who have kids and are on a strict time limit when it comes to HA… :S

Santobert · January 17, 2021, 8:12am

https://192.168.x.y:8123/ is only available of you set up SSL either with letsencrypt or with self signed certificates. Be aware that lets encrypt needs an public accessible URL to complete the acme challenge and self signed certificates cannot be created without some knowledge about SSL. But there is an step-by-step guide: Certificate Authority and self-signed certificate for SSL/TLS

The probably easiest solution is to use nabu casa. SSL comes out of the box here. Just set up your internal and external URL accordingly afterwards and your good to go.

Thank you very much for the video! This helped me a lot and fixed my connection problem.
