Unifi integration unable to connect to Unifi Network Container

[krauthammer18]

The problem

I am unable to configure the Unifi Network integration with my Unifi Network container. The container is running version 10.0.162 and when I look at the server.log on the container I do not see any login attempts being made. My container runs on port 8443 but I am selecting that port on the integration.

It is worth noting that the user creation on my Unifi container does not match what is shown in the integration documentation. All users are local however as my Unifi container is using local authentication and is not connected to account.ui.com. See attached screenshot for user creation options.

Mi trovo anch'io nella stessa situazione

Not sure if this is completely related but my Unifi Integration is having major issues at the moment as well.

Basically the Integration keeps dropping it connection and all devices go 'unavailable' in HA yet are working fine in the hardware sense.

My issue was network related (containers could not communicate with each other) Once I resolved that, I was able to get the integration working with the local user I had created
