@frenck I guess I'm lost with this announcement! I'm running the Unifi Network that is available under Devices & Services (Integration) it is working and communicating just fine with my self-hosted UOS Sever 5.0.6 on a separate Linux box with no problems or issues.

This repo is does not contain an Home Assistant integration, but an app.

You are mixing up concepts as it seems.
