Xiaomi Gateway password

Hi
as I have no chance to read out the password of my Mi Gateway as the app has changed, is there any chance to read out the toke out of my working Domoticz Installation?
It must be stored somewhere I assume.
I do need it for Home Assist
Many thanks
Jo

Hahaha. Although I have the same issue. Quite funny you are requesting it here how to do it because you are moving to HA.

Seems that the Xiaomi app is now on V6.2.200 and indeed the “old” method of getting the network password is not available any more (triple tapping in the about menu of the Xiaomi app). Also googling I did not find the answer.

Yes, I have installed HA in a virtual Box on my Linux machine and it found all devices which I already have in Domoticz out of the box, incl. my Tesla my BMW i3 and a couple of others like my Epson printer.
Yes the Gateway password is missing, but its a minor issue, I am planning to move to Conbee instead and get rid of my Xiaomi Gateway, and maybe even my Hue Bridge (2.nd step)
I just yesterday moved my domoticz installation to Buster and 2020.1 without too big trouble except some Z wave devices.
Yes I am very used to Domoticz after 5 years of usage, but I am also looking into other installations like IObroker and HA. The visualization is much better solved in any other installation compared to Domoticz or I am to stupid. I never got a external LCD running well.

Seeing how easy HA got all my devices recognized almost out of the box impressed my a lot, yes.
And yes, I am not hiding my wish to move away from Domoticz, I am just to lazy...so that's why I am still using Domoticz and working with Domoticz.

and read the follow instructions on domoticz

NOTE: only gateway needs to be at least version 2 DGNWG02LM

version V3 and M1S does not seem compatible with Domoticz

because i'm doing a migration to HA too...

i've found the password in domoticz db :

Code: Select all

SELECT Name, Password
FROM Hardware
WHERE Name="Xiaomi Gateway";
