Ah, that worked. I forgot I had to select those devices when I added the makerapi app. Now, how am I ever going to remember that in the future :)

Once you do that though they should show up in a few minutes or immediately if you press the search for new devices button you mentioned. I’ll add a little text under the button pointing to that as I have had several similar moments myself ;)

If I go to the edit interface: Hubitat window, I see a button for “Scan For New Devices Now”, but that doesn’t learn about my new device. I thought I remembered that disabling and re-enabling the vera forced a sync once in the past, but I tried that for the Hubitat and it didn’t help. I tried rebooting the Hubitat - nope, I tried restarting XTension - nope. What to try next?
