Hey Zach. Great job on the plugin! I love it.

Recently I've been getting authentication errors and I can no longer log in.

A few things for you to know:
1) I do not use 2FA.
2) I did try to downgrade the plugin and that wasn't successful.
3) I can successfully use those credentials to log in through the web and the ring app.
4) the doorbell device is no longer listed in the dropdown in the ring plugin device (this may be obvious) but the attributes of the account and doorbell are still listed in the device from the last successful GET

Thanks for the note! The short version is that Ring temporarily blocked the underlying python library due to some bugs, but the awesome folks who developed the library worked over night to fix it. Ring themselves were friendly about the whole thing, but a fix was definitely needed so as not to hammer their API. I'm working to port to the new version of the library today.

(Temporarily marked this thread as an "announcement" to catch people's attention while the fix is being worked)

[ZachBenz]

Just a quick update - the changes to the underlying python library are going to take a little bit of time to adapt to; hoping to have something up and running later today.

[ZachBenz]

I've just pushed out version of 1.7.1 of the plugin, which should fix this.

[ryanbuckner]

Thanks for the huge effort Zach! I'm happy to test for you if you need it.

Oh, ha, localizing the default date of January 1 1900 puts some people back in 1899. At least that one is an easy fix!

Ah - I failed to account for previously existing states still set to the initialization default of January 1, 1900. I'll get this fixed. Fortunately, this is largely a cosmetic issue, so everything should continue to function, just a couple of device states won't be properly initialized to default values.

Please try version 1.7.5, which I just released, when you have a moment.
