Q42.HueApi.HueException: 'unauthorized user' while calling DeleteWhiteListEntryAsync

[Gforse12]

Recently i've updated the Q42.HueApi library from 3.8.3.0 to 3.15.1.0. But now when i try to delete a user i get the exception Q42.HueApi.HueException: 'unauthorized user'.

I can however control all lights and groups.

Callstack:

This exception was originally thrown at this call stack:
    Q42.HueApi.HueClient.DeleteWhiteListEntryAsync(string)
    System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(System.Threading.Tasks.Task)
    System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(System.Threading.Tasks.Task)
    System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter<TResult>.GetResult()
    AppName.HueBridge_Settings.btnRemoveWhitelist_Click(Object, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) in HueBridge_Settings.xaml.vb

My Code:

If Not HueLocal.SelectedBridge Is Nothing AndAlso Not HueLocal.SelectedBridge.EntertainmentClient.LocalHueClient Is Nothing AndAlso Not cbWhitelist.SelectedItem Is Nothing Then
    'Check if we are not removing ourselfs
    If HueLocal.SelectedBridge.EntertainmentInfo.Username = CType(cbWhitelist.SelectedItem, WhiteList).Id Then
        localMain.ShowMessageDialog("Cannot remove this application form the whitelist.")
        Exit Sub
    End If
    'Now double check with user and then remove.
    If Await localMain.ShowAskingMessageDialog("Are you sure you want the remove device [ " & CType(cbWhitelist.SelectedItem, WhiteList).Name & " ] from the whitelist?") = MahApps.Metro.Controls.Dialogs.MessageDialogResult.Affirmative Then
        If Await HueLocal.SelectedBridge.EntertainmentClient.LocalHueClient.DeleteWhiteListEntryAsync(CType(cbWhitelist.SelectedItem, WhiteList).Id) Then
            UpdateUI()
            localMain.ShowMessageDialog("Succesfully removed application [ " & CType(cbWhitelist.SelectedItem, WhiteList).Name & " ] from the whitelist.")
            Log.Message(LogLevel.Info, "Succesfully removed application [ " & CType(cbWhitelist.SelectedItem, WhiteList).Name & " ] from the whitelist.")
        Else
            localMain.ShowMessageDialog("Failed to removed application [ " & CType(cbWhitelist.SelectedItem, WhiteList).Name & " ] from the whitelist.")
            Log.Message(LogLevel.Warning, "Failed to removed application [ " & CType(cbWhitelist.SelectedItem, WhiteList).Name & " ] from the whitelist.")
        End If
    End If
End If

Hue bridge is running software version 1937045000, Api version 1.36.0 and application is compiled as 4.7.2

Hue changed the permission level of this API. Since bridge API level 1.31.0 it's no longer possible to delete a user using the local API. If I understand the API docs correctly, it's only possible using the Cloud/Remote API. See the docs: https://developers.meethue.com/develop/hue-api/7-configuration-api/#del-user-from-whitelist

Ah thanks, that explains a lot. Since we use the API offline i will remove this function.
