I continue to have the HTTPS Error 401 coming back after a few hours (days ?).  
I can fix it by creating a new Personal Token on SmartThings and using that new one in the settings for the App. But it’s annoying and strange…

I found that someone posted a similar issue with SmartThings API integration on Reddit a few hours ago… [Reddit - Dive into anything](https://www.reddit.com/r/homeassistant/comments/1i4omwg/samsung_smartthings_integration_breaks_after_a/)

From that post, I read that something have changes early in December 2024 with the Personal Access Tokens (PAT) … [Changes To Personal Access Tokens (PAT) - Platform Updates - SmartThings Community](https://community.smartthings.com/t/changes-to-personal-access-tokens-pat/292019)

I read especially that PATs were meant for short-term testing and development, but they’ve been used for long-term integrations and so **newly issued PATs** will expire after 24 hours (And I did create a new one recently indeed) ☹

They promote now the use of OAuth2 …

> I have posted information in other topics, but just to keep everyone informed, I have heard that SmartThings are changing the rules of the PAT. Newly issued PATs will expire after 24 hours and will have tighter rate limits. That obviously makes them useless for use with Homey. The only alternative is to switch to an OAUTH2 login, but the private tokens only support 500 users. That is also useless for Homey as my current app has around 1500 users. It’s possible to request a token that supports …

Just a quick update, all be it not a good one, Athom have reported that they also have never heard back about obtaining an OAUTH2 token that supports more users.  
Basically, it appears that SmartThings just want rid of anything that’s not expanding their own ecosystem.

Many thx for the feedback… I see now indeed the other thread on this topic in the forum…

So, sounds like these are my latest Samsung screens. I will definitively look for brands with a more opened ecosystem ☹

Aaah to bad im also fed up with stuff like this where the support changes after ive bought it (just recently also with my solar panels)

So just like my solar panels ive now installed a Shelly power measure in the socket of my Samsung clothes washer. To bad but this way im able to see when its finished and no cloud needed.

However ive noticed it uses 15watt while powered off also hours after it has been used that’s crazy, does anyone else also noticed this?

I have succesfully added my Suamsung Smart Tag version 1 using the apps and the Samsung token. When generating the token I made sure that I ticked all the boxes. However when I want to make a flow which would use the location of the Smart Tag I see no option to use that in the flow. The location status is just not there. I have a HP23. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks, Idso.

Unfortunately the smart tags don’t publish their location via the API.

All you can do is create an event in SmartThings and that will be sent to Homey.

Thanks for the quick reply. When I try to do that it says that I need a hub. I will be looking for another location device.

Das mit den 500 benutzern ist wie gemeint ? Meinen die geräte oder was meinen die?

Ich habe gerade gelesen das man mit OAUTH2 auch token erstellen kann die aber auch nur 24std halten und die einloggen geschichte bei OAUTH2 besteht wohl auch aus 2 bedingungen client id und client secret

Und die app erfordert ja einen token im Konfigurationsfeld daher würde doch diese OAUTH2 methode gar nicht gehen oder ?

@Adrian_Rockall is this error related to your app or homey app?

I replied directly to the error log as soon as it came in. Basically it has error code 429, which means there have been too many requests. Are you using the same tokens for any other integrations?
