Error (again) using app with Hue Remote API

[MarcusBluestein]

I had an issue with the app and remote API months ago and you helped me resolve it. The problems return a few weeks ago and I have not been able to use the app since. I confirmed that I am running the nightly build version (5.8.6) and reinstalled it to be sure.

In the app, I get this: Error Occurred Connecting to Hue, please try again

In the logs I get this:

Any ideas?

Just confirmed a fresh download of nightly (and release) works with Hue local and Hue remote. I would validate you can get lights using postman or some other REST tool

Thanks. I could connect to my Hue system locally and through the Hue website.

I fully deleted PresenceLight and reinstalled it. Seems to work again.

Thanks
