@ChrisKelley no issue, it’s useful as we know it generates the same address

[sdetweil]

@ChrisKelley so I installed, did npm install in the module folder
here is my config , two sensors from my entities list in HA

so now all I can think is your token string is bad…

      {
          module: 'MMM-homeassistant-sensors',
          position: 'top_left',
          classes: "page4",
          config: {
            host: "homeassistant.local",
            port: "8123",
            https: false,
            token: " my fresh token ",
            values: [
              {
                sensor: "binary_sensor.athom_garage_door_status",
              },
              {
                sensor: "sensor.foo_battery_percentage",
              },
            ]
          }
      },

@sdetweil
Sam
Thank you for all the help… I tried deleting the token. I made a new token in HA and used that one still nothing… I deleted the module from MM and I will try again this afternoon. Which fork did you use for your test? There are at least two just want to make sure I use the same one as you did…
Thanks
Chris

[sdetweil]

@ChrisKelley I used this one

https://github.com/Snille/MMM-homeassistant-sensors.git

@sdetweil

SAM!!!
Thank You!! It works… I was using a different fork then the one you used… plus I think my sensor strings were malformed. but all good now!

Thank You Again!
