">>This current integration is not being updated, only fixed if HA update breaks it!<<"
Aaaand an update broke it. @veista is this something fixable - are you looking into this?

[Diegocampy]

Same problem, if it is not resolved I will have to return to the standard

[Milkysunshine]

On line 25 in smartapp.py , add , cloud at the end. You should get this:
from homeassistant.components import webhook, cloud

After line 32 add
from homeassistant.helpers.storage import Store

So you'll get this:

from homeassistant.helpers.dispatcher import (
    async_dispatcher_connect,
    async_dispatcher_send,
) # <-- This is line 32
from homeassistant.helpers.storage import Store # <-- add this
from homeassistant.helpers.network import NoURLAvailableError, get_url

from .const import (

Now line 97 (was 96), change it from
if hass.components.cloud.async_active_subscription():
to
if cloud.async_active_subscription(hass):

So you should have this:

def validate_webhook_requirements(hass: HomeAssistant) -> bool:
    """Ensure Home Assistant is setup properly to receive webhooks."""
    if cloud.async_active_subscription(hass): # <--- here is the change to now line 97.
        return True
    if hass.data[DOMAIN][CONF_CLOUDHOOK_URL] is not None:
        return True
    return get_webhook_url(hass).lower().startswith("https://")

Now line 213 (was line 212 before the addition, Change from
store = hass.helpers.storage.Store(STORAGE_VERSION, STORAGE_KEY)
to
store = Store(hass, STORAGE_VERSION, STORAGE_KEY)

You should have:

    # Get/create config to store a unique id for this hass instance.
    store = Store(hass, STORAGE_VERSION, STORAGE_KEY)
    config = await store.async_load()
    if not config:
        # Create config
        config = {
            CONF_INSTANCE_ID: str(uuid4()),
            CONF_WEBHOOK_ID: secrets.token_hex(),
            CONF_CLOUDHOOK_URL: None,
        }

Save the file and restart homeassistant.

I created a PR, it may be easier to follow that if it isn't merged: ec5765c

I Update smartapp.py with your but Smartthings not work, and in the log i see this:

    and hass.components.cloud.async_active_subscription()
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'HomeAssistant' object has no attribute 'components'

could you help me to undertand what is the problema now?

[z-oo-m]

Can confirm the above.
I also got the error: AttributeError: 'HomeAssistant' object has no attribute 'helpers'

After modifying smartapp.py based on Milkysunshine's post, the error with 'helpers' was probably fixed, but now the integration returns an error with 'components': AttributeError: 'HomeAssistant' object has no attribute 'components' same as Diegocampy above.

[Milkysunshine]

Yeah, I'm not sure.

I made the exact modifications I mentioned and it works?

I just rebooted HA again to verify... It works.

My PR was based on a full copy and paste of my current working file.

Maybe try pasting in the entire file from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Milkysunshine/smartthings/refs/heads/master/custom_components/smartthings/smartapp.py ?

I upgrqded to 2025.5 and removed Smarthings Custom - made the modification by @Milkysunshine, but got the same error. I then downgraded to 2025.4 and installed Smarthings Custom again, upgraded to 2025.5 without removing Smarthings Custom. Made the modification - restarted and everything worked.

when you write downgrade, you restore a backup or different?

I restored a backup

There's a few other instances of hass.components.cloud that need to be replaced by just cloud like the PR was doing.

It is very possible. I only made changes until it worked on my installation.

Hi - Here is a new modified file smartapp.py.
It was necessary to do some more changes to the file, thank you @Milkysunshine for pointing in the right direction.

For modified file:
https://github.com/breiviar/brama/blob/master/smartapp.py

You replace the file smartapp.py in config --> custom_components --> smartthings
Restart Home Assistant and add Smartthings Custom integration again
