#Tailscale Integration on Home Assistant keeps disconnecting

Hello fellow Tailscalers!

I recently installed the Tailscale official integration for Home Assistant as I manage one large tailnet with machines at multiple sites, and I wanted to add the connection status of the machines in a card on my dashboard.

So I created a 90 day key from Tailscale admin, and plugged that into the integration and off it went.

Everything worked great, until a day later when the integration inexplicably deleted the key, then said that it had expired, and died.

So I created a new key, plugged it in, off it went... until a day later when the same thing happened.

I'm 3 keys in now and it has happened again.

Any idea why this is happening? Am I hitting API limits? Is that what's causing this?

could you set "log level" to debug on the Configuration tab of the addon settings, restart the addon and then reproduce the problem once more and export the logs from the Log tab the next time it breaks?

also: the home assistant addon will try to disable tailscale log reporting if the log level is not set to debug, which you may like but if you have Network Flow Logs (an enterprise feature) enabled on your tailnet then this will cause it to break, so i'd check that. if you do have flow logs, setting log level to debug will fix the problem
