Connect Tuya / Smart Life

WebiPhoneAndroid

Connect your Tuya / Smart Life devices to your home in ALYT with the details from your Tuya IoT Platform project. You enter the Data centre, Access ID and Access Secret, then connect and refresh the device list if needed.

Open the Tuya / Smart Life connection

  1. On web, open Integrations. On iPhone or Android, open Settings, then Integrations.Integrations
  2. Open Tuya / Smart Life.
  3. If the connection form is available for this home, start the setup.

This connection uses details from your Tuya IoT Platform project. ALYT does not ask for your personal Smart Life account password in this form.

Enter the project details

  1. Choose the correct Data centre for your Tuya IoT Platform project.
  2. Enter the Access ID from the project’s Overview page.
  3. Enter the Access Secret.
  4. Choose Connect to create the connection.Connect

The Data centre field is required. The Access ID field is required. The Access Secret field is required.

  • Data centre choices are Western America, Eastern America, Central Europe, Western Europe, India, and China.
  • Access ID help text says: On the project's Overview page.
  • Access Secret is sensitive and should be entered only in the connection form.

Refresh and check devices

  2. If Look for Tuya devices is offered, use it to refresh the list.Look for Tuya devices
  3. Open a device to check its reported state.

A successful connection means the integration was added. It does not by itself confirm that a device has already carried out a command.

What to expect

  • The Tuya / Smart Life connection appears in your home’s integrations.
  • Discovered Tuya devices can appear in the list for this home.
  • You may see an option to Look for Tuya devices again later to refresh the list.

ALYT fetches each device’s local key once and keeps only those. After that, the supported local device path is used.

Troubleshooting

  • If the connection fails, read the on-screen error, correct the field or network issue it identifies, and try again.
  • If you are unsure which project details to use, verify the project’s Data centre, Access ID, and Access Secret, then re-enter them carefully.
  • Do not create duplicate connections to investigate an unclear result.
  • If your home does not offer connection for this integration, follow the availability shown for that home.
  • If configuration for your home is managed by a partner, use Support.
