Context
Track the Home Assistant Wyze integration failure discussed in the Reddit reference. Recent reports show the integration failing with SSL certificate verification errors when connecting to api.wyzecam.com, sometimes surfaced as a generic login or invalid-credentials error.
Why it matters
Wyze's API certificate chain appears to rely on the distrusted DigiCert Global Root CA (G1), which can break current Python/certifi-based environments. The commonly shared Docker workaround disables SSL verification inside the Wyze client and is temporary, update-fragile, and not appropriate as a durable fix.
Proposed next step
Monitor the upstream Wyze API certificate and the ha-wyzeapi integration for a supported fix. If needed, document a safe recovery path for this Home Assistant setup only after validating the current integration version and certificate status. Avoid leaving ssl=False in place as a permanent solution.
