core Error: No devices or entities Failed setup, will retry: ‘devicePreferences’

The problem

After installing, Login to Amazon was successful. Directly after I received a message: No devices or entities Failed setup, will retry: ‘devicePreferences’

I have not been able to get this to find any devices. I have removed it and re added it. Restarted HA. Running HA Green. with latest updates on all components.

From the logs I have this information:

` Logger: homeassistant.components.alexa_devices Source: helpers/update_coordinator.py:382 integration: Alexa Devices (documentation, issues) First occurred: 06:27:49 (56 occurrences) Last logged: 07:33:32

Hopefully some more useful information.

We have a lot of Alexa devices on our network probably around twenty. I ran a debug and there is some information I don't want to post as it has data about my devices but here are some snippets that may be useful.

This call Appears to be successful and returned a lot of data that looks valid: 2025-06-12 09:06:05.909 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] Creating HTTP session (aiohttp) 2025-06-12 09:06:05.910 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] GET request: https://alexa.amazon.com/api/devices-v2/device with payload None [json=False] 2025-06-12 09:06:06.201 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] Cookies from headers: {'csrf': '-2016431233'} 2025-06-12 09:06:06.201 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] Response 200 for url https://alexa.amazon.com/api/devices-v2/device with content type: application/json 2025-06-12 09:06:06.203 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] Response URL: https://alexa.amazon.com/api/devices-v2/device 2025-06-12 09:06:06.203 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] Response code: |200| Same with this set of calls: 2025-06-12 09:06:06.209 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] GET request: https://alexa.amazon.com/api/dnd/device-status-list with payload None [json=False] 2025-06-12 09:06:06.416 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] Cookies from headers: {} 2025-06-12 09:06:06.416 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] Response 200 for url https://alexa.amazon.com/api/dnd/device-status-list with content type: application/json 2025-06-12 09:06:06.417 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] Response URL: https://alexa.amazon.com/api/dnd/device-status-list 2025-06-12 09:06:06.417 DEBUG (MainThread) [aioamazondevices] Response code: |200|

This however appears to have had a failure:

Unfortunately you got a 500 error reply: Internal Server Error.

Not much we can do, if not trapping and handling the error.

Jun 12 '25 14:06 chemelli74

Is this 500 error an Amazon back-end issue, or an issue with the request being sent to Amazon?

Jun 12 '25 15:06 gherbstman

The first. Maybe due to a high number of requests from your account.

Thanks, I will see what I can find on my end.

Having the same issue here as well. I have 5 devices on my network. The integration logs in but just get an error. Says "No devices or entities. Failed setup, will retry: 'G07131161232...'". Integration doesn't appear to work.

I am getting the same error:

I also get the "Needs attention" message:

You don't have the same log, so you should have opened a new issue. Anyway your problem is already fixed via #146828

Same as above

Not really. It now just says "Invalid authentication" instead. I'm using Google Authenticator OTP. I put email address, password, and OTP number. Not sure what more to do?

New problem? Then opens new issue with details info and debug log

Possibly. I have opened a new issue and it appears others are experiencing similar problems.
