After spending hours researching and troubleshooting, I finally managed to integrate my Nuki Lock V3.0 with HomeKit without needing a bridge! Here’s how I did it, in case anyone else is struggling with the same issue.
First, I followed the video tutorial provided by simon42, which was incredibly helpful. I set up the HomeKit bridge in Home Assistant and included the Nuki lock entity in the configuration. Everything seemed to work smoothly in HA, but when I tried to add it to HomeKit, I didn’t receive the QR code prompt.
I realized the issue might be with how the entity was being passed through the bridge. After some digging, I found that defining the lock as a switch in the HomeKit configuration worked perfectly. While it’s a bit of a workaround, it allows me to control the lock seamlessly through HomeKit without any additional hardware.
Here’s the configuration I used:
yaml
name: HASS Bridge
port: 51827
mode: accessory
filter:
include_entities:
- switch.nuki_lock
I also want to thank the community for all the resources and support. It’s amazing how much time and frustration can be saved by tapping into this wealth of knowledge!
