Hi,
I recently bought the Nanoleaf Skylight, it's amazing! :-)
I would however like to put the device into pairing mode so Home Assistant can integrate and retrieve a token to it. The procedure about retrieving a token doesn't look to be working with the 5-7 on/off button cause there isn't any button on the device :) Is there any other way I could use?
Thanks in advance!

Hi lizznl,
Also saw your post on the Home Assistant community forum as well as your request regarding API pairing mode here.
I just found a solution:
If you have the Skylight on a swith just turn it off for a short time, like 1 second, and on again.
Since this restarts the device it might take a few seconds until you can reach the API again, but it seems to be ready for pairing for some time after.
I was able to manually request an auth_token via the REST API as well as get it into Home Assistant via the Nanoleaf integration.
Just verified that this works. Thank you!
Hi MrBrown!
Thanks for your tip! Did you request the api with a GET command? Or did you let the integration request the token?
Thanks in advance,

Both. First tried a POST command to '192.168.x.x:16021/api/v1/new'.
According to the API documentation this adds a new user and should return it's token. This is what requires the 5 to 7 second button press to demonstrate physical presence. But I did not use that token in the integration.
I tried again with the Integration requesting the token this time and it just worked.
