Home Connect, region issues

See original GitHub issue

The problem

For the first, I’m from Russia. BOSCH leaved the market by the first days of war. Since then:

  1. It seems my Home Connect client account was deleted. I managed to create a new one with the same email address, but this time I choosed US region. It worked, my wash machine works again from the app.
  2. Developer account is… Shadow blocked? I don’t know how to describe it, but it’s fun. It always says my password is incorrect -> Recovery it -> Then I sign in with one-time link method, and then it works. But if I choose to log out, I can’t login with the new password and should repeat the trick. I also changed my region to the US, but it keeps happening.
  3. Integration stopped working, so I re-added it. Everything I get now is error
{
  "error": "unauthorized_client",
  "error_description": "client or redirection URI not authorized",
  "state": ""
}

The interesting fact:

  • Even if I change callback-url in Home Connect Developer, it remains the same (previous) in the b64 error state.
  • If I create a new app to get a new client ID/secret pair and update it in the configuration.yaml, it also remains the same in the given URL https://api.home-connect.com/security/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=[previous client_id which is already unpresent in configuration.yaml]
  • Tried to change callback-url to external https / internal http, no luck with that.

So… That’s it. Is there any other users from Russia? Did anyone had this issue, and if so - how did you resolved it?

For the devs - I know it’s probably not the integration issue, but I think it should be somewhere in “Issues”. At last, we need a place to discuss it, and maybe find a way to bypass theese restrictions.

I’m running into the same problem ("client or redirection URI not authorized") when setting up for the first time, although I’m in New Zealand. ~What exactly does the configuration yaml look like @Sleepy81 – I’d like to give it a try and see if it helps. Thank you.~

UPDATE: Manually editing configuration.yaml fixed the problem for me too.

home_connect:
  client_id: HERE_IS_MY_ID
  client_secret: HERE_IS_MY_SECRET

Hi @Drun555! You posted a token in your message, you should delete it as it should not be public. To solve your problem, you could try creating a new developer account.
