Authentication Expired, now cannot re-authenticate

Open invertedworld opened this issue 1 year ago • 13 comments

I received an ‘Authentication Expired’ message. When I try to re-authenticate I get ‘ Email/Password authentication failed.’

I have changed and verified the password works in the PodPoint app.

Error updating access token. Auth Error (200) - Error processing access token response. 'idToken' not found in json.

Not sure where in HA to find the config to share.

Hi, which version of the plugin and home assistant are you running? The latest version needs a new home assistant version so you will only see it once HA is updated to 2024.7.1 or newer

You should be running 2.0.5

Hi Matt.

Core 2024.10.2 Supervisor 2024.10.0 Operating System 13.1 Frontend 20241002.3

Pod Point component version 2.0.5

Same problem here. I think its where PodPoint have added 2FA.

It’s entirely possible that this has killed the component, this week I’ll try and reverse engineer how it’s done

I have managed to remove the 2FA from my account. To do this you need to add the 2FA on the App and then go in again and remove it. You will then get an email with a link to formally remove the 2FA. Once this was done my HA component was able to sign in again. Hope this helps!

garybrowngeo avatar Oct 14 '24 09:10 garybrowngeo

This worked for me too. Thanks!

That is fine removing 2FA from your account, but 2FA is required to pay for public charging. So currently two options, Enable 2FA and be able to use public chargers it not the HA integration, or disable 2FA and use the HA integration, but being unable to charge your car.

Just encountered the same thing :(

Maybe signing up for 2 accounts is a solution? Not ideal I know!

Hi I’m new here. Thank you to the creator of this integration! Unfortunately going through the same thing as everyone above. We use the podpoint public charging a lot so not an option for us to turn off 2FA just to be able to use the integration :(

The need for 2FA when using public chargers is a huge blocker for me too. Hopefully this is something that can be addressed. Fingers crossed. (I get the feeling that this is not so straight forward though)

Hi all. Is 2FA still a blocker? I have just this week needed to reauthenticate the integration, but getting an authentication error. I can log in to the official PP app fine (so credentials are ok).

mattcd216 avatar Nov 14 '25 09:11 mattcd216

Yes, I think this is still an issue.To use the PodPoint app you need 2FA set. The integration does not work with 2FA, so you can use one or the other. Not both. That is assuming you can still turn off 2FA in the PodPoint account.Keith EllisOn 14 Nov 2025, at 09:01, mattcd216 @.***> wrote:mattcd216 left a comment (mattrayner/pod-point-home-assistant-component#68) Hi all.
