The WAQI sensor on my Home Assistance instance (originally 2021.01 and now updated to 2021.03.4) has stopped working.
The log shows
2021-04-01 15:04:01 WARNING (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.sensor] Setup of sensor platform waqi is taking over 10 seconds.

2021-04-01 15:04:01 WARNING (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.sensor] Platform waqi not ready yet. Retrying in 30 seconds.
Looking at the code https://github.com/andrey-git/waqi-async/blob/4f3c5098fbba9fbad857958185886c1bd04d2373/waqiasync/init.py I can see itâs using the endpoint âhttps://api.waqi.info/â so the standard WAQI API and therefore https://api.waqi.info/feed/nottingham/?token=MYTOKEN
Looking at the API Documentation shows it should be calling the following URL. Run it in POSTMAN, all good. Login into the Hass.io box,
$ curl "https://api.waqi.info/feed/nottingham/?token=MYTOKEN

Hmm, odd - why wonât doesnât it want to play ball? OKAY, letâs just create a REST sensor to that URL
- platform: rest
name: WAQI REST
resource: https://api.waqi.info/feed/nottingham/?token=MYTOKEN
value_template: '{{ value_json.data.aqi }}'
drat
2021-04-01 15:25:49 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.rest.data] Error fetching data: https://api.waqi.info/feed/nottingham/?token=MYTOKEN failed with
(no further text after the âwithâ)
Anyone have any ideas on how I could fix this / debug this further?
