By rebooting the Hubitat hub.
The rule screenshot linked above is how I automated this process.
I have a question. I am not sure you will be able to answer. I’m trying to install the unofficial ring integration and I am trying to figure out why one of my doorbells is not showing up. I have three doorbells two of them are battery doorbells from 2020. The one that is not showing is titled The all new battery doorbell, which is the newest model. It is not showing up when devices are discovered. I think I am doing everything properly, but just wanted to check to see if I’ve missed something. Any thoughts?
It’s likely got a new name that isn’t yet in the application. I think it can be seen if debug logging is enabled. There have been a few posts on this very long thread about this when new models came out.

Thank you for replying.
Any idea if the app will be updated at some point to cover the new devices?
I sure wish Ring would do a better job in designating models to better reflect the progression of when they came out.

Try pasting the name from the debug log here.
Hopefully they'll add it shortly then.
Try looking at previous posts about missing devices-they'll show where you can add that device to the list yourself in the mean time.
This is an example:
You'll need to add it to the list(s) of SIMILAR Ring devices, not just any random list!

@ardichoke, thanks for continuing to support and update this great App and drivers for RING. Unfortuantely, none of your existing drivers supported all the functions available for the Ring Spotlight Cam (1st Gen). With the help of Microsoft CoPilot in GitHub I have created a new driver by merging your Ring Virtual Light driver and Ring Virtual Camera with Siren driver into one driver to support all the functions and features of the Ring Spotlight Cam (1st Gen) - Turn Light on/off, Siren on/off, show both batteries, etc and removed any code that was not relevant to the Ring Spotlight Cam device
The driver code can be found at:
Feel free to copy and change as you want if you want to incorporate it into your Package.
Note: When the API retrieves the device RING reports the Spotlight Cam as a "stickup_cam_v4", so I also updated your App to automatically associate this driver to the device e.g. "stickup_cam_v4": [name: "Ring Floodlight Cam Battery/Solar", driver: "Ring Virtual Camera with Light and Siren"]
Something that is odd, in the RING App I have SnapShot Capture turned on for every 1 hour and have the BASIC subscription plan yet when the API calls the device the logs are showing the device as
"snapshot_capture_plus":false so your App appropriatley reports "No installed devices support snapshots. Please install a device that supports snapshots before continuing"
However, the logs also show this is enabled
lite_24x7":{
"subscribed":true,
"enabled":true,
"frequency_secs":3600,
"resolution_p":360
}
RING changed their BASIC subscription plan last year where you can no longer change the MODES under the BAISC plan. I wonder if they also disabled Snapshots under the Basic Plan. Would it be possible to update your APP to pull snapshots using the lite_24x7 value?

I installed the app code via HPM and so far so good. All I care about is that I can see my contact sensors at this point and there they are under the location. But I'm confused - the App instance doesn't appear under Apps; I only see Devices. Is that expected behavior?
Has anyone been able to get the Kidde RGCUAR-RW Smoke + CO Alarm integrated into HE after getting it connected to their Ring Hub? I've had other First Alert ZCOMBO smoke/CO detectors connected to my Ring Hub, which show up in HE with this app, but the new Kidde RGCUAR-RW isn't seeming to want to pull in...
You'll probably need to turn on full debug logging and look for errors.
Somewhere on this thread, there are other discussions about adding new devices.
You probably just need to look for the device type and add it to the list in the app--and share the info on it with the developer of this app so he can add it for everyone.

Got the Ring Integration working - so far looks good, except for one thing. It found all the my Ring devices except the Ring bridge and the mailbox sensor. I dont see a websocket device for it either. Is it not supported through the integration, or there's another way to enable that? Ring mailbox sensor was one of the main reasons i wanted to have Ring integration to Hubitat.

Shouldn't be too hard to add, can you search this topic for Mailbox? Sounds like a few people do see it show up. e.g. [Re-release] Hubitat Ring Integration (Unofficial) - #893 by bfara83
But maybe it's newer and has a name not yet added, so you could turn on debuging and run create devices and share if one is found but without support.
