New API key not working, all sensors showing Unknown
Hi all

I've noticed that today the sensors in HA are all showing as "Unknown". I tried creating a new API key for Fox Cloud and Energy Manager, but it's still not working. Does anyone know if the API is down at the moment? I've raised a support ticket but this was all working yesterday.

Thanks!

Foxess don't provide support for the HA integration, please create an issue on the github project being sure to include any HA logs that may help they developer investigate.

Hi Will

This is a question about the API, not HA. I just want to check the status of the API and ensure it's still working cause I can't get connected to it.

Since posting, others have now reported issues with the Fox Cloud when accessing it via api key.
I would give it a few hours and try again.

It seems that the API is back up now
