3 weeks ago Looking through that log file...
- Starting at the top, the 403 Forbidden errors are presumably because you removed the robots from your account whilst the plugin was still running. Due to the API rate limits the plugin only reads the list of appliances in the account once at start-up, so it continues trying to poll the robots that have been removed.
- It looks like around 20:13 the AEG RX9-2-4-ANM robot was added back to your account, but its details had not fully propagated to the API, so expected properties were missing from the API response. A debug log would really have been helpful to capture the raw API response so that I could update the plugin to cope with it. However, given that this is a short-term transitory issue, I don't feel a desperate need to handle it better.
- A minute later around 20:14 the AEG RX9-2-4-ANM details were populated, except for the task list. That might be because you haven't setup a schedule, so I probably need to change the plugin to treat the
tasksproperty as optional. - Around 20:18 the AEG RX9-2-6-IBM robot is back in your account, with everything apart from the
tasksproperty. Again that is likely to be because you haven't added a schedule. - At 20:22 you restarted the plugin, but since neither robot is providing
tasksthe plugin is not accepting the API/api/v1/appliances/${this.applianceId}/stateresponses. This prevents those accessories from completing their initialisation. - As 20:30 you restarted the plugin again. This time it looks like the HomeKit
displayNamehas got set to a blank string for the two newly added robots. I suspect that this is because the name has not yet propagated to the robots and back to the/api/v1/appliances/${this.applianceId}/stateresponse; this does seem to be quite slow. - At 20:31 you restarted the plugin again with the same result.
- At 20:42 you restarted the plugin again, but appear to have stopped it before it got far through its initialisation.
- At 21:39 you reinstalled the same version of the plugin, with a new API key. However, I am guessing that by then you had exceeded the API daily rate limit. So you restarted the plugin eight times between then and 22:52 with the plugin sitting retrying API requests and getting 429 status codes returned.
- At 02:00 the rate limit reset and the plugin was able to continue initialising, repeating the same failure with the missing
tasksproperty in the API responses. - At 07:33 you restarted the plugin yet again, with exactly the same result.
So, it looks like there are three issues, all related to the /api/v1/appliances/${this.applianceId}/state response:
- Immediately after an appliance has been added its full details are not available via the API. I do not intend to do anything about this.
- If no schedule has been configured then the
tasksproperty is not present in the response. I need to treat it as being optional rather than always present. - The
applianceNamecan be blank, even when set correctly in the/api/v1/appliancesresponse. Switching to the value from the/api/v1/appliancesresponse is probably the best approach, perhaps with a fallback to generating a name from theapplianceTypeandapplianceId.

Description of Issue
I had connection problems with one of my robots as you noted in #53, so I deleted that robot and the one added after that one (as the AEG app is not able to sort the robots individually, they are added in the order you add them to the app) and readded them successfully to the app and named them like before, like so:
They were not added to the devices section until now. Because of the issues with the checkboxes (#54) I did some testing yesterday downgrading homebridge DEB package, trying your plugin version 2.0.0 again and finally completely uninstalled the plugin, reinstalled it and inserted a new access & refresh token. My first robot (AEG RX9-1-IBM) was added to the homebridge and HomeKit devices again, but the newer 9.2 models are missing.
