apsystems: Error on device update!

[joshmtucker]

I'm experiencing an "error on device update" issue, and don't seem to be able to see any sensors added. I reviewed closed issues and other threads in hopes I could figure out the solution on my own, but unfortunately I wasn't able to. I confirmed all the variables in my configuration.yaml are correct, installed the latest version from GitHub (1.08), and confirmed I have data available for today in apsystemsema.com.

Below is the output from Logs. Thanks!

Sorry for my delayed response. I tested it again and it seems to have resolved. Thanks again for the fix!
