Mine started working yesterday. I had to unlink and relink the Arlo account to Smartthings. I also had to redo the smartlighting automations in Smartthings.

Thank you for providing your feedback, I have notified the Development team & we are working on a release for early next week. I will be sure to update you as soon as I hear more!

Thank you for your patience while we worked to resolve this issue. The issue with the Arlo SmartThings integration and not receiving alerts should now be resolved. You do not need to relink your devices, you should now be receiving your automation alerts.

They asked me to provide that info, too. Much of it was redundant: already asked & answered.

Information from SmartThings support:
Thanks for writing into Samsung SmartThings Support!
I'm sorry to hear there has been some trouble, but I'd be happy to help.
We are aware of a known issue with the Arlo integration causing an impact to some customers including:
Difficulty adding new Arlo devices to SmartThings.
Missing events from Arlo devices in SmartThings.
This is an ongoing issue with callbacks provided by Arlo to SmartThings. We're working with Arlo to make sure that the motion information is being sent to SmartThings.
Arlo devices stopped sending any data to SmartThings starting on 12/23.
We're working with Arlo to make sure that the motion information is being sent to us.
Thank you so much for your patience and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
Have a good day!
for what it is worth, at least they will reply back..

My Arlo automations do not work because SmartThings History does not pick up motion messages.
Sometimes I can remove and re-link Arlo and sometimes I can’t.
When I can link them the automations only work for less than a day.

Hello,
I wanted to provide a quick update. Arlo is currently investigating these reports with the SmarThings team and working towards a resolution. I will provide another update as soon as possible.
Thank you

I'm not trying to pigeon-hole you. But there seems to be a discrepancy between when Arlo says the problem started, and my own experience. I experienced the lack of motion sensing around November 25, +/- a couple of days. Others have said they noticed it around December 1st. I believe someone else said around December 31st.
You've said that "Arlo is currently investigating these reports..." Does that mean that the problem still hasn't been identified?
Based on your experience, how long can we expect to wait for a resolution? Are we talking about a few more weeks, or months? 6 months?
Again, I'm not trying to put you in the spotlight here, but a little more clarification might keep some users from jumping-ship. Many of us purchased cameras with the understanding that the products worked with SmartThings. Can we at least get refunds or credits for our paid plans, since this functionality isn't currently working? The integration was released in what, 2018?

My automations in smartthings using camera motion detections have failed. I have troubleshot it down to a cloud network problem. Arlo records me walking in front of the camera, and records a video. It also notifies me of motion on my phone. If I look at the camera in smartthings, I can see a current video, if I select play,
but there have been no triggers or history for quite some time ( months ). I believe smartthings uses these triggers, to execute the automations. I have screenshots if you need them

I bought the Arlo cameras 2 weeks ago because of this key functionality.
Will it be fixed shortly or should I return the set?

Well, I too bought the Arlo Doorbell for its motion integration with Smartthings and have until February sixth to return it to Amazon if they can't figure it out. On a positive note, It has stayed integrated for over 24 hours now.

Now I can’t even get my cameras to resync with ST following the same steps that used to work for all of a few hours.
I’m done with you, Arlo. I’ll be finding a replacement for you ASAP. Thanks for roughly $500 worth of useless paperweights now…
Also sorry to say that I cannot recommend your product to anyone any longer. Once I find a suitable replacement, that’s what I’ll be recommending.

After buying a couple of Arlo Essentials to add to my existing Arlo Pro 2/Smartthings setup, I ran into problems with Smartthings automation and triggers. On advice on a different forum the suggest was remove and reinstall the Arlo Linked Service. Uninstall went fine, the devices and linked service were removed from the app, however reinstall appears to be broken. Note all cameras are showing correction in the Arlo app, and my.arlo.com.
In Smartthings apps on both IPad and IPhone, following the instructions to add by brand or device manufacturer takes me to the Arlo OAuth login, log in successfully, the response is “Connection between SmartThings and Arlo is successful. Close this page to finish setup.”
- no errors.
On closure it redirects me back to the add device page that I previously came from, with none of the cameras to add, nor any errors. I’m unclear what the expected result is here. In some screenshots it appears to be a list of cameras available to add. In other forum comments - it’s indicated that I should just wait. Either way no cameras are showing up.
I’ve tried a number of things on a number of devices:
1. I’ve removed and reinstalled the Smartthings app just in-case it was caching responses
2. I’ve checked that the Arlo devices were active, and set to disarmed.
3. Looking at the Menu | Settings | Linked Services is showing Arlo (Disconnected).
4. Clicking on Arlo (Disconnected) prompts for Arlo OAuth creds- again indicating “success” then removes the entry when the OAuth browser window is closed.
5. Going through any of the possible “Add Device” > Arlo Auth paths after #3 shows up removes the Linked Service.
6. I’m currently waiting to see if that disconnected status changes - 24hrs seems way too long
7. Removed the previous custom “Smartthings” trigger mode in Arlo app - just in case that was causing conflicts.
8. Looked around in the Smartthings Developer IDE for residual Arlo connect artifacts - nothing to be seen.
Looking for help and recommendations.

I have found a workaround to get the floodlights triggered with Arlo motion detection by setting up routines using Alexa. It does work and Alexa is still getting motion notifications from Arlo. Not ideal but at least the security lights work again.

Anyway, I just tried to relink them today but I am now unable to add the arlo devices back to ST. So it feels like they are working on it, and hopefully soon we will have a working integration again.

I like others, apparently, had lost motion events some time back. I was able to work around that by using the Alexa integration to get motions events to my Hubitat system. I still used the ST integration to be able to turn individual cameras on and off. That stopped working sometime in the last couple of days. So I deiced to remove and add the cameras back and I can't.
So the Arlo ST integration is not working at all now, is that correct?

Here's a Pro 3 Floodlight issue that's plagued me (& others) for awhile: Floodlight senses motion (armed), & turns on light, records video, and pushes notification to my phone. The light only stays on for 20-30 seconds, even though it's set to stay on for 5 minutes. I've reset the camera, and uninstalled/reinstalled the app, as directed by support. Same problem.

Well like everyone else I had lost Arlo motion sensor and battery status integration with Smartthings, but I will still able to turn the cameras ON / OFF from Smartthings This morning I noticed in Smartthings that the cameras were still ON while they were supposed to be in the OFF state. I manually tried to turn them OFF from Smartthings, and now I DO NOT even have that simple functionality. I tried to unlink the accounts, and then bring the Cameras back into Smartthings. It shows the link process as successful and my 8 cameras returned in the Smartthings IDE, but nothing I can do to get the cameras to show in the Smartthings app. Appears that any fix they were working on may have broke it even further. I am open to suggestions on what to do next.
