Missing client_id during authentication

[dustmaker]

Hi,

I only installed this towards the end of last year, and it initially worked but then appeared to stop updating the status. I now get an expired authentication token message but when attempting to resolve, the auto-generated URL results in the following error message from the tado site:

{
"error" : "invalid_request",
"error_description" : "The request is missing a required parameter: client_id",
"error_reason" : "missing_client_id"
}

The URL only contains a user_code and no client_id - is the latter a new requirement of the tado API? My generated URL is:

https://login.tado.com/oauth2/device?user_code=xxxxxx

I have v1.2.0 installed via HACS.

I'm facing the exact same issue as well. I installed it yesterday and it was working wonderfully no issues etc. I then restarted HA in the evening and Auto Assist was left unauthenticated, following the link to login/auth. I get the same error of missing_client_id

Thank you for developing this integration by the way

Hi, you could try the following temporary fix. When the TADO page showing the error opens, add "&client_id=public-api-preview" to the URL and then reload the page. Let me know if it works and I'll integrate it into the next release.

From this: https://login.tado.com/oauth2/device?user_code=XXXXXX
To this: https://login.tado.com/oauth2/device?user_code=XXXXXX&client_id=public-api-preview

Hi, thanks for your response. I've just tried that but now getting a new error:

We're sorry, your request was malformed or was unable to be completed for some reason. Try hitting the back button and restarting the process to see if it fixes the problem.
If you want the nerdy explanation, review the following JSON body.

{
"error" : "invalid_client",
"error_description" : "client_id: public-api-preview is not valid.",
"error_reason" : "invalid_client_id"
}

Do I need to create a tado developer account or something?

Try this: "&client_id=1bb50063-6b0c-4d11-bd99-387f4a91cc46" and tell me if this works. Thanks

That allows me to get onto the next screen where the user code is prepopulated with the user code, but when trying to submit it gives an 'Invalid user code' message. Where did you source that client ID from? Do I need to get one specific to my tado account?

I've released version 1.3.0, hopefully it fixes the problem. Let me know.

Thanks, that's authenticated correctly now
