    Hi everyone,

    I hope it’s okay to write in English – it’s not my native language, so please excuse any mistakes 😊

    I’m currently having issues with the MMM-Tado module. It used to work fine, but now I’m constantly getting the following error:

    Error: Request failed with status code 403
    “error”: “forbidden”,
    “error_description”: “Please migrate: https://support.tado.com/en/articles/8565472-how-do-i-authenticate-to-access-the-rest-api”

    After testing my credentials directly via PowerShell and curl, I found out that Tado has disabled the old OAuth/password login flow, which the current MMM-Tado modules seem to rely on.

    I tried multiple forks, updated everything, checked my credentials, even tested the API manually – but the result is always the same: 403 Forbidden.

    MagicMirror logs show this over and over:

    MMM-Tado: Not all data present

    So I believe the module is no longer compatible with the latest Tado authentication system.

    ❓Has anyone already fixed this issue or found a workaround?
    Maybe someone already updated the module or uses another approach (like a proxy, Home Assistant, or a newer fork)?

    Thanks a lot in advance 🙏
    And again – sorry for my English! 😅

      @chichi1887 I have seen that the node-tado-client npmjs package has been updated to v1.0.0 to cater for the new OAuth2 flow. I would suggest opening an issue on the module Github page for the module developer to fix.

          What exactly do I need to do to get MMM-Tado working again? I searched the logs for the URL that should be generated, but couldn’t find anything.

                @JoeFranz oh, i see

                are you sure this new module is installed instead of the one you were trying?

                  @sdetweil I’ve now reinstalled it from this site. I can’t find the URL in the logs.
