Unable to Add Todoist Integration

[mariomaz87]

The problem

I have been using the Todoist integration without any issues for months. However, a few days ago, the connection between the integration and the Todoist API was broken. I removed the integration, but now when I try to add it again, I enter my token and receive the error message: "Unknown error occurred." Thanks.

I would check your logs when you try to re-add the integration and receive the "Unknown error occurred.". That will help narrow down the cause.

For what it's worth I just tried and didn't have any issues adding the integration in my instance. Hopefully any error logs will point to the problem.

Should I enable some kind of extended logging? In my Home Assistant Core I don't see anything related to Todoist. After inserting the token the wheel spins for a while (a long while actually), I get the error in the UI but nothing in the logs!

If I try to add the integration in the configuration yaml with:

calendar:
  - platform: todoist
    token: mytoken
    custom_projects:
      - name: "Alla porta"
        due_date_days: 0
        labels:
          - allaporta

In the log I see an error:

Logger: homeassistant.components.calendar
Source: helpers/entity_platform.py:405
integration: Calendar (documentation, issues)
First occurred: 10:30:03 (1 occurrences)
Last logged: 10:30:03

Setup of platform todoist is taking longer than 60 seconds. Startup will proceed without waiting any longer.

And I also tried by issuing a new API token. Same error, but I can use the same API with other applications with no issue (e.g., Obsidian Todoist plugin).

EDIT: it's working again, maybe some kind of connectivity issue

[mariomaz87]

This is definitely some kind of connection issue because it's not working anymore after a few minutes

Same issue here. I get this error after enabeling debug logging for the todoist integration.

After deleting and readding todoist I get a timeout at this screen:

I am unfortunately still unable to reproduce this. It looks like the api request is timing out.

While I don't think this will resolve the issue, I did open a PR to update to the latest version of the todoist-api-python library: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/136549
