Upgrade 0.83.2 api_password not working with webhooks

I know I’ve read a while back that support for api_password is being dropped and that I should be looking at the use of long lived tokens for access to HA from webhooks and other services.

Has support been dropped as of 0.83.2 because all of a sudden my scripts, webhooks, etc… which use the api_password have stopped working with this latest upgrade. I read through the changelog but maybe I missed it.

Is there a method to continue using the api_password short of downgrading to 0.82. Thanks in advance. Ynot.

I think it may have been dropped in 0.83 although I have not found any announcement.

Why not use a long lived token? Reverting to an earlier version seems counter-productive.

You are quite right. I will change but there is some work involved and I wasn’t looking forward to that right now.
