Linking a Home Assistant you already run (free) Relay link (recommended — no public IP, no port forwarding, CGNAT ok): 1. Install the Vome integration in your HA and choose "Connect this Home Assistant to Vome". It shows a short code. 2. Enter the code at https://vome.io/account/link-ha (signed in). 3. Your HA dials out; Vome brokers agent calls down that connection. You get uptime visibility, a free health-report teaser, backup inflow for rescue, and optional paid add-ons (CHAP standby, off-site backup generations, friendly domain). Direct link (your HA is already reachable over HTTPS): 1. Add its URL + a long-lived access token at https://vome.io/account/connect-ha 2. The token stays on the portal server — agents only ever get the scoped Vome API token, never your HA credentials.
