Uploaded July 2021 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
In todays video we are looking having a look at the new Tuya V2 integration. This integration will eventually switch out the existing Tuya Integration for Home Assistant. The current integration will be removed entirely on December 31st 2021. The new integration offers a whole bunch of features, including things like :

- Utilizing the new Tuya API
- Better security
- More supported devices

THIS IS THE HACS INSTALLATION METHOD. FOR THE OFFICIAL INTEGRATION SEE:
youtu.be/f8-7Hvrmh3Y

LIST OF KNOWN WORKING TUYA v2 PRODUCTS
github.com/MarkWattTech/Tuya-v2-Supported-Devices


The integration is being developed and maintained by official Tuya Developers.

There are a couple of ways for you to get access to the BETA :

You can sign up for the BETA via Tuya's Home Assistant Beta Program : pages.tuya.com/develop/HomeAssistantBetaTest_V2?_source=0f830a64066b550ff0090b23add28444

Or you can manually access the BETA via HACS (Like I do in the video) or just manually clone the files from the GitHub Repo.

Tuya v2 GitHub Repo : github.com/tuya/tuya-home-assistant
URL for HACS : github.com/tuya/tuya-home-assistant

AGAIN PLEASE NOTE!
This integration is in BETA so do expect some issues. You can report these issues to the developers at : github.com/tuya/tuya-home-assistant/issues
