Debug logs

2024-06-29 16:12:39.480 ERROR (MainThread) [custom_components.battery_notes] Entity sensor.sensore_1_cameretta_battery_last_replaced not configured in Battery Notes

Diagnostics dump

No response

[andrew-codechimp]

source_entity_id is only used if you created an entity type battery note and should be set to the entity_id that battery notes is associated with. If your battery note is a more typical device type then setting the source_entity_id: "" should fix this.

service: battery_notes.set_battery_replaced
data:
  source_entity_id: ""
  datetime_replaced: "2024-06-28 12:27:00"
  device_id: deef0ff3cb2886ea4b319d38fe6270c8

Confirmed to work fine with:

service: battery_notes.set_battery_replaced
data:
  datetime_replaced: "2024-06-28 12:27:00"
  device_id: deef0ff3cb2886ea4b319d38fe6270c8

Thank you !

I suggest you give a failure feedback to the UI when the settings are wrong. And improve the service description to help others.
