${allocResponse.Msg}

Error message

${allocResponse.Msg}

What it means

Tuya Cloud API GetStreamUrl guard: the /v1.0/devices/{id}/stream/actions/allocate call transported fine, but the AllocateResponse reports Success=false and its server-provided Msg becomes the error. The cloud refused to allocate a WebRTC stream for the device — permissions, plan limits, or device state per Msg.

Solutions

1. Act on the appended Msg (e.g. device offline, no permission)
2. Verify client_id/client_secret and the device belongs to the account
3. Retry after the cloud/device recovers; allocation can be transiently unavailable
