I just got a new Tapo C225 V2.x
Firmware is 1.0.7
Integration Version is 5.4.18

Camera is in the network, has internet access and is visible and controllable in the Tapo app.

I did all the steps above a hundred times, I am 100% sure to use the correct camera account credentials and a different password for my cloud account.

Finally, it does still reject the cloud password and i have no more ideas what to try.

Any help or ideas?

Yes see pinned issue.

OK, sorry, I did see that of course, but it is not clear at the first look, it's this issue. The whole process feels like I am doing a mistake or mixing up my setup.

Just a very little and friendly hint: Maybe you change 2 little things to get less messages from idiots like me ;)

1. Integrate the words "Invalid cloud password" in the pinned topics headline to make it more clear that's the error. For me, the statement "makes the integration stop working" was a different kind of issue then my experience being unable to set it up for the first time.

2. The FAQ / Troubleshooting for "Invalid cloud password" in the integrations' description sound like a general and just normal procedure. Maybe you can add a more clear warning there, that there is a explicit issue there right now, that can not be solved by following the steps.

Thanks for your work, your last info updates from today sounds promising, so i will just wait a few days or weeks for the new "official" method.

Thanks, have a nice day!

Thank you for the feedback @RealCommerzpunk . You’re right I will update the docs and the issue soon to make it clearer.

[JurajNyiri]

Updated both, @RealCommerzpunk hopefully this is now more apparent.

I can confirm I'm having the same problem. Restarted, reset etc still run into invalid cloud password.
