Is there anyone who has a solution for "SmartThings Changes To Personal Access Tokens (PAT) to 24h"?

Is there any update on this? Such a shame the 2 services dont work together anymore

no solution?

No. Totally broken.
I understand why but its broken :disappointed_face:

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 I’m 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

I’ve 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. It’s a convoluted way to interconnect the two systems but it works.

No token needed.

I just cant get my 2021 dishwasher to connect with the official app. Not sure why

You can use Olisto 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 “light on” (create if it doesn’t exist yet)

Then:

  • SmartThings: turn light on

Trigg 4: turn light off
When:

  • Olisto Connect: Connector is activated “light off” (create if it doesn’t exist yet)

Then:

  • SmartThings: turn light off

Then, you can continue with the Flows. Create a virtual device 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 “light on” URL]

Flow 2: turn light off
When:

  • Virtual device turned off

Then:

  • Logic: send HTTP request to [olisto connector “light off” 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 .. )

Can you tell more about this ?

I must make an new tokken and in this i make all the options on ?

But when i make an new tokken the tokken only 48hours on and when out of this time there was deaktivated

Can you tell me we the complete action is to make an new tokken longer available as 48hours

Thanks for it
