I’ve since discovered that the version of the Unifi software that I use requires either MFA or 2FA. There are three types, but, at least one must be active. This app seems to require 2FA to be turned off. I’d love to be wrong, but unless there is an alternate method of authenticating via this app to Unifi, I think I’m out of luck.

Could you first log in to your controller locally via
https://192.xxx.xxx.xxx

After logging in, please create an Admin user with Local Access Only.

Below is a screenshot of the user I created on the Unifi Settings page for users. Note that it is active. After trying it in the Homey app, and testing for whether the credentials were valid, they were not.

What am I missing?

Did you give the role Admin rights?

It’s greyed out at the bottom. Site Admin. The role is Local Admin.

Can you send me a screenshot from the validate credentials?

It’s not shown, but the username is dpbrown. I’ve retyped the password about 10 times, making sure the capitalized characters are correct along with the numbers and special characters.

Site = default
Server = your local IP for the controler not unifi.ui.com

I want to do some more with specific Access Points, so I finally linked my first devices. Shame on me that it took me a year after installation of the app…

I’m using a UDR, with WiFi onboard. But the UDR doesn’t show up as an Access Point within the devices, it shows a dash (-). When I go upstairs or to the garden then the dash changes to the top floor AP or garden AP.

Is there a reason the UDR doesn’t show up as an AP in the devices? That should mean that I can’t act on the most used AP in our house…

Or is it possible for you @ObelixNL to add it?

tIA!

when I grab the URL from my browser, it looks like this:

https://unifi.ui.com/consoles/1C0B8BE8ADFD1000000009B22A44000000000A29F78C00000000691DB257:1840733517/network/default/dashboard

That should open my console for anyone most likely, so I changed a couple of the numbers in that long hex code. Is this what you mean. I’m not a network engineer, and completely new to Unifi, so, I’m not catching on very quickly.

You must use your local IP address like 192.168.1.1, do a ipconfig on your CMD (Windows) and get your gateway IP address.

IPCONFIG first

Yet another screenshot of the Unifi Homey app config page. Note that I tried 192.168.1.200 in both spots that seemed appropriate. Under the IP address for the server, I tried both. Under the IP address for the “Site”, I tried both. I don’t understand the significance of either.

Hi, is it possible to use this app for Cycle power on unify switches PoE ports? From time to time I need to manually cycle power some ports. Until now I had to go to unify console each time. I was thinking to connect it to Homey so I can do everything from one place. However, when I add the switch I see the option of PoE port but the assigned number and also the count of ports do not match. I also cannot toggle it from UI - it seems like I can use it only in flows. Naming those ports would be also nice. To start I am trying to find out whether more users experience invalid count and number of ports on switches and if more users cant really toggle PoE cycle other than from Flows. Thanks
