Life 360 Integration failing to connect.
Life 360 Integration failing to connect.
Noticed when we got home last night our outside lights were not on, but we have an automation to turn them on if we're gone after dark. Meant to check why, but forgot.
Logged into the companion app this morning to manually toggle a switch and saw Life360 integration was not connected and "requires reconfiguration"
reentering my password and trying to log in is not working. I tried removing and re-adding the integration but the problem remains. Now I cannot re-add the integration as it will not sign in.
Anyone else experiencing this?

It's an API problem. Another good example of trying to use local integrations if possible.
If you're just using it for presence detection, there are a lot of other options. What kind of router do you have? HA has integrations that can see if your phone is connected to your wifi or not. The Android app also has location features but I haven't tried using it.
We are using it for presence detection, but not just for those that live in the house. Our life 360 'circle' allows my parents to arrive and automatically perform actions (disarm alarm) but they are not users of HA since there is no real need.
We were already using L360 when I started using HA.
Thanks for the link, I googled looking for issues because I know there was one earlier this year that required a fix. Might be time to figure out a better way, but it's just another thing to mess with :)
One of the wifi integrations would still work if your router/Access Point is supported. You just need the MAC address for whatever phone.
The only "gotcha" for the wifi presence detection is you'll have to change a setting on everyone's phone to "use device MAC address". Android and iOS both use randomized MAC addresses for wifi to prevent tracking, but tracking is what we want to do.
Maybe server and client time are out of sync? If they're using ssl to communicate they have to have the same time.
I just checked an it appears my HA server and laptop are both within 1sec of one another, so I am assuming I'm good there. Thanks for the idea. I tried restarting HA also, no luck.
Tried going back to using my phone vs. email to log in, but same issue, authentication error.
Doubt this is the issue. This post prompted me to check my own Life360 setup and I have the same message the OP does. "Integration Requires Attention" in my notifications. The integration fails to authenticate.
I don't have a solution, just adding that the issue is likely not related to a time sync problem.
This is likely due to an API change from Life360 itself. This happened in July as well if I remember correctly.
That makes more sense.
