Generic Camera - Error getting new camera image

The problem

good day!

I have a template sensor that parses an image url like this:

#LocalAI Image Generations
- platform: rest
  name: "Image URL Sensor"
  unique_id: [redacted]
  resource: http://192.168.1.195:8080/v1/images/generations
  method: POST
  scan_interval: 43200
  timeout: 120 
  headers:
    Content-Type: application/json
  payload: > 
    {
    "prompt": "magnificent scenery, wide landscape, sharp and crisp background, very beautiful landscape, fantasy, birdview, best quality, masterpiece, ultra high res, dark blue light, photo, photorealistic, wide view, kkw-ph1, professional shot of house, {{ state_attr('weather.forecast_home', 'forecast')[0].condition }} day, humidity perception is {{ states('sensor.humidex_perception') }}, thermal perception is {{ states('sensor.thermalperception') }}, extreme low-angle shot, realistic photography, ultra detailedmagnificent scenery, wide landscape, sharp and crisp background, very beautiful landscape, old ruins buildings, fantasy, birdview, best quality, masterpiece, ultra high res, dark blue light, cloudy, photo, photorealistic, wide view, kkw-ph1|nude, human, nudes, naked, sex, horny, sexual",
    "size": "512x512",
    "model": "landscape-photoreal"
    }
  value_template: "{{ value_json.data[0].url }}"

which creates a sensor with state of an http:// url, as shown

Using the generic camera integration, it correctly displays the image that is parsed:

however, on every restart of core, an eror is logged
