Yolink Plugin Help

[Kentinada]

I just installed a Yolink hub and 4 type 1 leak sensors at my home.  I have them configured in the Yolink app and everything looks good there.  I installed the trial version of the Yolink plugin from the plugin store and configured it with my UAID and Secret Key.  I didn't see anything else in the installation instructions that I needed to do. I have restarted the plugin multiple times.  What I see in my EISY admin console is a device called "YoLinkSetup" and it says it's connected.  But I don't see any of the 4 installed sensors which I guess I expected to see.  What should I do next?

@Kentinada Make sure you’ve restarted the admin console. You probably have since you see a yolink setup in there. 

In PG3 dashboard does it show any nodes? If not then something isn’t right with the setup. Maybe put the log in debug and restart the plugin and see if it’s giving you any login errors. 

Looks like the plugin information also says it might take a full reboot for nodes to sync. Make sure you see all devices in the YoLink app. Make sure you copied the UUID and Secret Key correctly then perform a reboot of the eisy/Polisy.

It should sync quickly, but notes do seem to make it appear it might be random time/process to get a good sync.

There is a YoLinkSetup node - same as I see in the Admin console.  There are timeout errors in the log (attached).  Not sure why.

I might revoke that key and generate a new one. Something might have not copied correctly. Make sure admin console is closed while updating the plugin. Verify you get nodes added in the plugin web interface first before opening admin console again. 

Don’t delete or uninstall the plugin! Just try a new key and then restart the plugin.  Watch the log for issues when the plugin restarts.

Too late.  I deleted and reinstalled the plugin.  Now I have the 4 sensors showing up as nodes in the plugin interface but the admin console still shows just the YoLinkSetup device.  I quit the console and restarted.  No change. Progress but not there yet.

Well I just spotted the 4 devices in my admin console. They are not grouped under the YoLinkSetup device. They're shown listed alphabetically in my devices.   I guess I could group them in a folder.  They all say Water Sensor Dry.  I assume within a program, I can test for Wet (maybe?) and take action based on that.

@Kentinada The names should update if they have names associated with them in the web plugin list. I recall mine updating after bringing into admin console. Did you name them in the YoLink app? Mine follow the naming from the app, but I do think you can name them from admin console and be just fine. Some underlying PG3x setting might keep them in sync though. I recall others having an issue in other plugins when renaming in admin console it pushed back to the plugin and app and made issues. That was  while back though and might have been fixed.

Glad it seems to be working out. It’s okay to delete the plugin, but so much can be fixed without doing that it’s usually a last resort for me, but for many it’s their first thought. 

I don’t recall if they can group, but certainly putting in a folder helps. I have them nested in the Plugin folder for YoLink. 

Seems they just needed a push to get synched to the plugin then to admin console.
