Forbidden implies a credential or protocol issue.
Updated. I put out a message recently saying not to update right now:
The forbidden message means you are locked out of the device for some reason.
Update firmware may have updated the protocol to the currently unsupported TPAP.
Password may have special characters (did you change your tapo password?). See below.
Your actions to try
- Check password for no invalid characters.
- Open the integration app
- Check your credentials
- Turn on DEBUG Logging (after checking credentials),
- Run Find Devices
- select done then done to back out.
- Check if the devices now work. If so, tell me. If NOT - send the APP from the last run only. The debug data will have information that is useful.
- I also need the model, hw version and Firmware Version of your devices.
Tapo Passwords: Invalid characters for Tapo plug passwords often include special symbols like #, &, $, or spaces. It is best to use a password that contains only alphanumeric characters (letters and numbers) and is between 8 and 63 characters long.
