Ah apologies. In that case, it might be better to ask your question in the [app thread](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-tuya-cloud/21313).

Also, [see this post](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-tuyapi-neo-coolcam-wall-plug-wifi-app/15811/312). You need to set the API key before you can add devices.
