PetState Object doesn't return "status" and "position" anymore

[djvanhelmond]

Since today the PetState object doesn't have "state" and "position" anymore.
The API still returns 'status': {} but position is completely absent.

Commenting to confirm I'm seeing the same issue.

From looking at Sure Petcare's beta API, it looks like they still expect "position" to be exposed. https://app-api.beta.surehub.io/index.html

There's a discussion in the HA integration regarding this.
According to a response by SurePet in this comment they intend to switch to new endpoints and the "old" web version is outdated.

I don't know if that affects other devices as well. I can only confirm this for their flap.

I had contact with the sure petcare support. Here is the answer:

Here below is the advice from our Connect expert:

The old version of the webapp is no longer supported. Customers are asked to use the new mobile app, as some features will soon stop working, and will be replaced by the new app.   

In this case, the old webapp displays the wrong information. The new app should display the correct information. 

Thank you for your understanding.

Danke für Ihre Rückcmeldung. 

Hier unten der Rat von unserem Connect-Extperten:

Die alte Version der Webapp wird nicht mehr unterstützt. Kunden werden gebeten, die neue Mobilapp zu benutzen, da einige Funktionen bald nicht mehr funktionieren werden, und werden durch die neue App ersetzt.   

In diesem Fall, wird in der alten Webapp die falsche Information angezeigt. Die neue App sollte die richtige Information anzeigen. 

Danke für Ihr Verständnis.

Have you changed the definition to V2 in the upper right corner? The new API has only 4 endpoints for now. Looks like it's possible to get the pets location via /api/v2/timeline

It worked just now for a minute and now it broke again. Someone on the Sureflap side is working on this atm.

I asked them if they plan to continue the web version cause they told me the old one is discontinued.
Here is the answer:

If you have a problem with the question mark, you will be asked to use the mobile app for the near future.

We were supposed to launch the new web app in spring 2025. I cannot give you a more precise date at the moment. 

Thank you very much.

It is working now already for about 24h, so someone listened :)
