NEWT_ID: "your_newt_id"
NEWT_SECRET: "your_newt_secret"
```
### **Docker Environment Variables**

## 🔍 Troubleshooting
💡 **Add-on does not start?**
- Check the logs in Home Assistant (`Settings → Add-ons → Newt → Logs`).
- Ensure that `PANGOLIN_ENDPOINT`, `NEWT_ID`, and `NEWT_SECRET` are set correctly.
