For some reason my Hive Integration in @homeassistant just stopped working about an hour ago. This coincided with the hive hub losing connection to the boiler which i have since resolved by following it's troubleshooting steps, and all my hive devices are working and connected to the cloud, but the entities in #homeassistant are still showing as unavailable. Has anyone else experienced problems like this with #hive and Home Assistant?
@sudoaptgetlife @homeassistant Yes, it's not the most reliable. So, I've my hub linked to HA via HomeKit, so at least it appears to HA as a thermostat. Works at a push when (not if) Hive's servers are down.
@ZS @homeassistant weirdly enough i have it connected the other way round lol. I have the Hub connected directly to homeassistant via the Hive (cloud) integration and it is served to my apple devices via the homekit integration. I don't have any other homekit servers unfortunately. I also use the Hive thermostat for triggering automations in HA based on the temperature it's reporting, so not having access in HA could have a knock on effect for other devices.
@sudoaptgetlife @homeassistant I used the HomeKit integration in HA, which I used to pair the Hive hub using its HomeKit pairing code, which in turn gives me a Bridge device (the Hive hub), and then a device below that that's the Hive room stat.
I also have automations running using the temps from the Hive stat, and others that control the Hive system when other thermometers hit certain thresholds (eg turning on the heating if the pipes in the kitchen or garage are at risk of freezing, using the temperature sensor on Shelly Flood devices).
@homeassistant I think i spoke to soon, its not working in the hive app anymore either and now the troubleshooting steps in app are failing to fix the issue this time around. I suspect it's a hive issue rather than home assistant.
@homeassistant boiler and thermostat are showing as connected in the Hive Mobile app again but still unavailable in Home Assistant.
@homeassistant tried rebooting my Home Assistant Server again and the Hive Entities are showing as available and appear to be working again. So near enough certain the issue was at Hive's end but neither the app or their (frankly useless) customer service team could give any indication what the cause was.
IS there any #OpenSource smart thermostats and boiler interfaces available that are compatible with #Homeassistant ? if not open source, are there any that at least aren't cloud connected?
