Anyone have any idea why I am suddenly getting a "No Devices Authorized" error. This did not happen when I tried making them before.
Go to the Apps tab, and select the dashboard that you created there. You should have the option to add devices to it. After that you can go back to the Dashboard tab and add your tiles.

Still busy doing that ... ...Not sure if I need to use the "Local LAN to Dashboard".
Only if you want to send yourself or someone a direct link to this dashboard that only works on your local network. It comes in handy to use as a Android/Chrome shortcut by placing this link on your phone home page.
There really isn't much other use to these, maybe for linking within dashboards.
I was just creating a "sub" dashboard for weather related items.
I may want to have it pulled up from the "mobile" dashboard so
the main one is not so cluttered. I have set up one dashboard
for use from a PC or tablet and other (only three tiles wide) for
use on the phone app. It may alos be useful to link from the
main PC/Tablet app as well. I do not need to see all the details
every time and I do have a console to my weather station I can
look at. I might want to check other sensors, forecasts but not
every time I bring up a dashboard. I only would need it locally.
I can use the usual web sites for forecasts when not home.
I already set up some local freeze alerts and an IFTTT frost
alert was set up years ago before I got the HE.
So for this one instance I might use it unlike other ones.
It seems to be working. Ambient Weather (user) and
Open Weather (built-in) work fine but Weather Underground
is still failing but that is another topic. I have a weather
station and a key but they are a pain to deal with.
This just made my day. I was unaware of the concept of having to add the individual devices to the dashboard app in order to be able to use it for the dashboard. Thanks's so much and as a not to the product development team - This should be explained right where the "No Devices Authorized" message shows - maybe even with a straight link to those app settings. Thanks again!
