No. Totally broken.
I understand why but its broken đ
Would be great for SmartThings to finally to become a bridge

And this happens more and more⌠Smartdevices in the cloud, manufacturer decides to change or to cancel their services and your devices are left more-or-less worthless. To name a few: Bose Soundtouch (will end in May 2026), Neato Botvac and now Samsung Smartthings. Okay, the primary functions are still functioning, but the extras are lost.
I lost my token. While creating a new one I red about the 24 hours limitation. So Iâm searching for a workaround.
Maybe Smartthings via Google Home, and then to Homey? Someone tried this?

Same problem, same questions!
BTW, it must be possible to support the new PAT system of Samsung, because the official SmartThings is still working, but only supporting Samsung branded devices:

It is. Smartthings and Home Assistant work with PAT but i do not know of any others.
Apparently its up to the developer to sort this not smartthings so its presumably Athom that need to sort this out. It does mean the great community apps will be useless though.
My solution. Get home assistant working, get smartthings working on HA then get the Homey - Home Assistant apps to bridge the two

Iâve had success with Sharptools connecting to both Smartthings and Homey using virtual switches. A routine in Smartthings can turn on a virtual switch, Sharptools can see that as a trigger and turn on the corresponding virtual switch in Homey. Then homey flows are triggered by that virtual switch turning on. Works both ways. Itâs a convoluted way to interconnect the two systems but it works.
No token needed.

You can use [Olisto](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.triggi.triggi) to connect your SmartThings devices to Homey. Just use the Olisto Connect channel with webhook calls. For example:
Trigg 1: light turned on
When:
- SmartThings: light turned on
Then:
- Olisto Connect: make HTTP GET to `https://webhook.homey.app/[homeyID]/light_on`
Trigg 2: light turned off
When:
- SmartThings: light turned off
Then:
- Olisto Connect: make HTTP GET to `https://webhook.homey.app/[homeyID]/light_off`
Trigg 3: turn light on
When:
- Olisto Connect: Connector is activated âlight onâ (create if it doesnât exist yet)
Then:
- SmartThings: turn light on
Trigg 4: turn light off
When:
- Olisto Connect: Connector is activated âlight offâ (create if it doesnât exist yet)
Then:
- SmartThings: turn light off
Then, you can continue with the Flows. Create a [virtual device](https://homey.app/a/com.arjankranenburg.virtual) first. You should have received the Olisto connect URLs in your email.
Flow 1: turn light on
When:
- Virtual device turned on
Then:
- Logic: send HTTP request to [olisto connector âlight onâ URL]
Flow 2: turn light off
When:
- Virtual device turned off
Then:
- Logic: send HTTP request to [olisto connector âlight offâ URL]
Flow 3: light turned on
When:
- Logic: webhook event light\_on received
Then:
- Turn on virtual device
Flow 4: light turned off
When:
- Logic: webhook event light\_off received
Then:
- Turn off virtual device

You have to give more access to the personal token. ( if not all? )
After that, using the official app, a permanent token is created.
So the official app is the way to go for the moment.
( but missing room temperature for the airco .. )
