Hello, I'm currently trying to link my Google account for my nest stuff with the homebridge plugin. Everytime I run the login.js script I click the generated link, then get my auth code. Then I paste it in there then I get my refresh token. Upon receiving my refresh token I put it into the nest homebridge plugin I get the error indicated below. I don't think I'm doing anything wrong as I am using the GUI and the script for getting this as recommended in the guide here but I am not able to get it working.

Auth failed: access token specified in Homebridge configuration rejected [9/10/2022, 12:20:54 PM] [Nest] Unable to authenticate with Google/Nest. [9/10/2022, 12:20:54 PM] [Nest] NOTE: Because we couldn't connect to the Nest service, your Nest devices in HomeKit will not be responsive.

If using an FT account you need to generate the token with node login.js -ft. Sorry this isn't clear in the docs - I will update.

Question: are Nest FT accounts still in active use i.e. any reason to continue using them? I'm thinking of removing this feature because I don't have an FT account, so don't have any easy way to test it and address bit rot over time. But want to hear your feedback.

Ohhh there we go it works now I removed the -ft flag and no more errors. Thanks for responding so quickly!
