Thanks that’s super helpful! I’ll have to see if the unloading of the blink config entry is the culprit then. I thought I had a test to cover that to make sure it’s working properly but maybe there’s something else going on I missed. Seems like that’s the common thread (deleting and then re-enabling)

To debug this further, I installed blinkpy on a separate computer and it worked… So I can rule out any Blink account specific issues. So perhaps it is my hass config - but no idea how to debug this further.

#pip3 install blinkpy
#python3
>>> from blinkpy.blinkpy import Blink
>>> blink = Blink()
>>> blink.start()
Username: myemail@domain.com
Password:
Enter code sent to myemail@domain.com: xxxxxx
True
>>> for name, camera in blink.cameras.items():
...   print(name)
...
Garage
Porch Doors
Backyard
Front Door
Blink Camera
