Empty key from scan

When I scan the devices I get empty keys so can't control them. I have heater, switch, and lamp.

Hi @thewh1teagle - you will need to get the local keys before scan will be able to read the devices. Follow the instructions here: https://github.com/jasonacox/tinytuya?tab=readme-ov-file#setup-wizard---getting-local-keys

python3 -m tinytuya wizard

@jasonacox

I thought that it can automatically login and fetch them. Is there unofficial api/library that I can also login with username and password for fetching the keys automatically? Thanks

https://github.com/blakadder/tuya-uncover will spit out a TinyTuya-compatible JSON file with -w devices.json.
