About Your Setup

Expected Behavior

Tell us what you think should be happening I was following your installation instructions and everything was fine up until I edited config.json to add the homebridge-smartthings-v2 configuration there. The instructions say:

app_url & app_id & access_token Required To get this information, open the SmartThings HomebridgeV2 SmartApp in your SmartThings Classic Mobile App, and tap on View Configuration Data for Homebridge Notice: The app_url in the example will be different for you.

I would expect that opening the Smartthings iOS app on my phone and tapping on "Smart Apps", then "Homebridge v2", would show me the "View Configuration Data for Homebridge", but I don't see any such thing.

Current Behavior

What happens instead of the expected behavior? I have a Smartthings v3 hub. I tried both the latest Smartthings iOS app and the "Smartthings Classic" version of the app, I don't see any "View Configuration data for Homebridge". I have looked through many, if not all, of the screens and menus. I just don't see this.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

Provide a link to a live example, or an unambiguous set of steps to reproduce this bug. Include code to reproduce, if relevant

1.Open Smartthings iOS app. 2.Click on Smart Apps 3.Click on Homebridge v2 4.Look through everything under that screen and I see no "view Configuration" or anything like that.

Ah! You have to go to App Settings, then hit Next and hit "Done" to get the smart app running. After that, you have to wait a few seconds for it to start. Then you can go back into Homebridge v2 and select "Render the platform data for Homebridge config.json"!

I guess the install instructions just need to be updated.

I'm off to the races now!
