iCloud integration stopped working (due to Apple SRP-6a implementation)
The problem
The iCloud integration fix recently merged to support App Passwords relies on a one-time login with the 'regular' password and MFA prompt. However, Apple has updated their side and now require Secure Remote Password protocol which is currently not supported by PyiCloud. As a result the iCloud integration no longer works.
BTW, it is already reported in the PyiCloud repo.
I opened this issue because the App Password issue was closed when the mentioned fix was merged.

I too am having this issue.
Whilst I know it is being worked on, is there a workaround as I have automations that rely on my Iphone and they do not currently work.
👍
The problem is still present.
Same problem. Reverting to 2024.10.1 did not fix it.

This is a change in iCloud’s authentication method, so reverting wouldn’t fix this.
The integration needs to be adjusted to be able to use apples new authentication mechanism.
