## Getting an Authorization Code
<div class="note warning">
Because of a technical limitation, the below instructions will not work for iOS users as-is. It is recommended that you set up the SimpliSafe integration from a desktop browser. If you must use an iOS device, please ensure that the SimpliSafe app is not installed before beginning; the app can be re-installed after the integration is set up.
</div>
Starting in 2021, SimpliSafe has moved to a new authentication mechanism via its web app. Below are instructions on retrieving the authorization code needed to finish setting the integration up.
1. Initiate adding the integration via the instructions above.
2. When prompted, click the link that opens the SimpliSafe web app.
3. Input your SimpliSafe credentials. You will see "Verification Pending" – leave this browser tab open.
4. Check your email for a message from SimpliSafe. When you have received that email, click "Verify Device" – note that this will open a second browser tab/window.
5. After the verification is successful, return to the first browser tab/window. The browser will show an error about not being able to navigate to the page; ignore it.
At this stage, take a look at the address bar and note the `code` parameter at the very end of the URL:
```txt
com.simplisafe.mobile://auth.simplisafe.com/ios/com.simplisafe.mobile/callback?code=<CODE>
```
Copy/paste this code parameter into Home Assistant to finish setting up the integration.
