I have a few Niko and Nous plugs that work well for me. I also have some Tuya ones, but they are luck of the draw if they work. They will connect to Domoticz through Zigbee2mqtt, but switch at random times on their own.

used the node-red but since 2 weeks it is no longer working due to updates to the API of Daikin. Can someone look into this. I am not able to do this myself.

I'm giving this topic a gentle kick. This week I got 5 Daikin units installed in my home and I want to monitor and control them with Domoticz. Mainly because my livingroom can be heated with both central heating (on gas) and the Daikin unit, and when there is enough sun, the Daikin can run virtually for free and I need something like Domoticz to be able to control both the central heating and the AC.

Looking for a solution, I can across this library: https://github.com/Apollon77/daikin-controller-cloud

But I'm no programmer and I wouldn't have a clue how to make it work... Does anyone else have any idea?

The Daiken AC you should be able to control with the build in Daiken hardware?

From 2023 Daikin does not provide any LAN access, so direct access from Domoticz is not possible anymore and you are forced to use the cloud API.
In the past there were a node red flow to simplify cloud access (viewtopic.php?t=38069) based on a node red node (https://github.com/DrHauss/node-red-contrib_BRP069C4). Unfortunately this node has not been updated after some breaking changes in the Daikin API and the integration does not work anymore.
I found a solution but it is really tricky and I would not recommand it if you have no programming skills. In summary what I did:
1 - Create a Daikin account at https://developer.cloud.daikineurope.com
2 - In node js environment I created a module based on example provided at Appolon Github site (it is a Typescript script and you have to convert it in Javascript)
3 - In node js I created a web server to link node red flow to the previous module.
4 - In the node red flow I replaced the Dr Hauss module by a function linking with the web server.
5 - The Daikin data format has been changed and a lot of adaptations have to be done in the flow.
