I am trying to get the ecowitt integration working and it requires http but I use HA Cloud and so my HA instance is only accessible via https. Am I wasting my time trying to find out how to get http (for local connections) working in parallel with the HA Cloud?

Your instance is available on your network with the IP and port (8123), you can use that in the ecowit settings (I do that myself).
You can find this in the HA network settings if you don't have it already.

that link shows me the HA cloud address which is https which wont work for ecowitt

That link gives you a link you click on yo see your network settings.

Thanks so if I substitute the local IP address and the 8123 port into the suggested settings from the integration when i configure the ecowitt device then I should be good?
tall fractal
Yup 👍 , that is exactly what I did.
You need to remove the first / in the path also, as teh ecowit settings already write that for you

Thanks for assisting me with this but its not working for me. I let it sit for a while in case it took some time but there are no devices or entities being discovered by the integration. I put the webhook url into my browser and it returns page not working - ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE. This is the ecowitt web gui config page:

appreciate you replies and time Ludeeus. Takk i think it is?

That addon should not be needed, assuming youur ecowit and HA is in the same network.

and just stumbled upon this very new official addon which probably makes it all moot. https://github.com/Ecowitt/ha-ecowitt-iot

@dire tiger I have suspiscion that you have configured certs manually for Home Assistant and using cloud at the same time, can you share a screenshot of your netowrk settings with me? (from the first link I sendt)

it looks like the web ui needs the / and when using the phone app it doesn't. But maybe it's because the integration is being added while using the NC URL and not the local
None of these add-ons should be needed
This should be populated with your local address and not the nabucasa address:

port should also sate 8123

I do not think so, I think its more that the instance is configured with SSL as well as cloud and as it does not have a local option, it prefers the cloud connection over the other one.

hi sorry for delay.
tall fractal
Yeah, as suspected, you have configured the http integration to use (invalid) certificates. As you are using the cloud, you should remove that, and ecowitt would have worked as it should, without the need for any workaround.
