Constant "Cannot connect. Is the API-Key correct?"

[gobbless88]

I understand I need to paste logs and configs- I simply can't get past the basic setup after I did a fresh HAos install.

My new Govee API key worked in the Govee2Mqtt addon, yet I simply liked the HACS Govee add-on much better so I would like to pursue this further and get it back working.

It's giving me the message "Cannot connect. Is the API-Key correct and the internet connection working?"

I saw others had this issue quite frequently in last October.

only Log I see as relevant

Traceback (most recent call last):

This! Having the same issue after changing Govee app password and getting new API key.

@LaggAt Have you confirmed this as a plugin bug or?

I'm having the same issues... my smart plugs suddenly stopped working and the integration suddenly started to fail on load. I removed it and re-added it with a new API key and i'm getting the same error that it can't connect.

I was having the same issues and have since fixed the problem by moving to Govee2MQTT

Confirmed, having this as well. Recently reinstalled HA OS and having the same issue with the Govee add on. Applied for a new API key and still getting the same error.

Same issue. Deleted the integration and got a new API but still have the issue.
