Somfy/Tahoma new Release, will it still work with Overkiz

Third party integrations
1

Hello,
I have integrated my Somfy Shutters using Overkiz. Yesterday Somfy released an new App: Tahoma by Somfy. When using the App the first time, the installation data on the central server will be converted to the new App.

In their Compatibility list for the new release Somfy states, that Web Broswer Access will no longer be possible.

I am not sure if the Overkiz login is considered a Web Browser Access, which would mean that it would no longer be possible to logon.
The other question is if Overkiz is compatible with the new release.

Has anyone already tested this?

Regards,
Joop

You’re not alone, I have the same fear, and didnt dare update my production system yet…

Thanks & bedankt!
I don‘t dare either, I hope someone has a possibility to test and report here.

I was hoping that Somfy would upgrade their Bridge to Matter with this major update, same way Hue did, but that does not seem to be the case. :frowning:

This change should be safe, since the new app (which is already used by TaHoma Switch) uses the same endpoint. It is probably some kind of internal migration of your actions / other app settings.

I cannot guarantee this, but the chance of breaking anything is very small.

You’re probably right, yet it makes me wonder, what if I migrate, but my other family members dont. Would they be locked out.? hmm, might need some careful operation/planning here

I assume everyone / every device needs to migrate to the new app, but again it is an assumption.

Thanks Mick, if Overkiz works with the Tahoma Switch which uses the new app, I am still concerned that Somfy states that after migration Web Access will no longer be possible.
Do you know if Overkiz is considered to be Web Access by Somfy?

Even if the chance of breaking might be small, I can‘t take the risk as I do not know of another way to have HA manage my Somfy blinds/shutters

Anyone out there who knows more?

Many thanks in advance!
Joop

Good morning, is there somebody out there who is using Overkiz and has migrated to the new App?

Good morning everyone, is there someone who is using Overkiz with the new SOMFY/TAHOMA release?
Feedback much appreciated!
Thanks,
Joop

I just upgraded my parents installation (TaHoma v2) and it works like a charm. You should be able to upgrade without issues.
