- Grab your token first time and keep in the TV settings
- Your TV may show a dialog, requesting permission for remote control. If you confirm this dialog, the TV will send an access token back to NodeRed, and it will be displayed in the debug window. Copy & Paste your token from the debug window into the Samsung TV configuration node.
