wyze: api_key and api_id required for account

Error message

wyze: api_key and api_id required for account: %s

What it means

getCloud found a matching account entry, but its APIKey or APIID fields are empty. The Wyze cloud API cannot be authenticated without both credentials, so the function refuses to build a Cloud client; the fix is supplying api_key and api_id in the account config.

Solutions

1. Fill in both api_key and api_id in the wyze config for this account
2. Obtain the key/id from the Wyze app keyring service and re-authenticate
