Missing signal and battery from cards

[Avatar1976]

Latest home assistant release has seen battery and signal disappear from the cards. Have confirmed they are still present on aarlo custom integration entities. Can't seem to get the card config to recognise signal and battery.

Same issue here.

Can you paste your lovelace card config?

Can you paste your lovelace card config?

edit: and what do you mean disappear? Config follows:

  - entity: camera.aarlo_beneath_dwelling
    name: Beneath Delling
image_click: stream
image_view: direct
image_top: name,status
image_bottom: motion,library,signal,snapshot,battery

Let me know if you need more examples

That's perfect. And it's a pretty simple config.

The next question is what is showing for the value of sensor.aarlo_battery_level_beneath_dwelling? Look in Developer Tools --> STATES.

Another quick one to try might be to force the backend to sse if it already isn't. You can add this to your aarlo config.

aarlo:
  backend: sse

You may have just hit the nail on the head. Will try the modification to the aarlo config as you suggest and report back.

[Avatar1976]

Swapped out the back end as you suggested. No change to the entity you mentioned above, I assume this is the default entity the aarlo glance looks at? Also wondered is it possible to get the front end config to read the attributes of the camera entity as per screenshot below.

Do you have admin access enabled on the shared account? Sometimes Arlo will turn it off, you need it for the battery devices.

Can you try the latest 0.7 version? It has some improvements in tracking states of devices, I noticed Arlo had changed their URL calls again.

I'll look into the other thing, I'm not sure how it works at the moment.

Definitely admin

Have updated to the latest version of aarlo, is there a new release of your Lovelace card?

[twrecked]

Did you try forcing a backend?

If so, I think we're up to the 'getting logs' time. Can follow the instructions here for Basic Debug and Very Verbose Debug and attach the output here. I'll see if I can spot something in it. I'd like to know why the devices aren't appearing.

I just noticed that my "sensor:

• platform: aarlo monitored_conditions:" code was under a second (duplicate) "sensor" line in my config.yaml. I moved the -platform, monitored conditions etc. under the main "sensor:" section and voila, the battery and other missing items became visible. This could have been the reason for my issue but could also been something else, as I remove and update all arlo packages.

@OH010 Chances are that is it, something similar happened in another issue, you can only have one of each setting section.

[Avatar1976]

Yep was trying to configure statistics platform and had a secondary sensor heading for that.

[Avatar1976]

Fixed now apologies for raising something that was a problem of my own making. duplicate sensor sections was the exact issue.

Glad it's working and have a good weekend.
