Entities not available (2023.11.0 and NR 15.0)

[driagi]

I updated HA to 2023.11.0 and Node-Red to 15.0. After the upgrade some entities are not available in HA. Tried to do a downgrade and everything works, I created an updated clone and it doesn't work

I also tried the HA(2023.11.0) and Node-Red (14.6.3) configuration. Not all entities work. N.B. -> I was probably wrong, but the entities (Category -> Config) don't work. Leaving it blank, it works again

I've met the same problem. Maybe it's because of the HA.

Check if they are CONFIG

What has happened to some of my NR. sensors? I am at current releases and sensors become unavailable.

What version of the package are you using?

Same here... I did start from HA Core 2023.10.5 and NodeRed 15.0.0. After update to HA Core 2023.11.0 all within NodeRed defined entities were not anymore available in HA. I did a downgrade to NodeRed 14.6.3 - the same. I went back to HA Core 2023.10.5 and everything did work as before.

Again after update to HA Core 2023.11.0 (now with NodeRed 14.6.3) all entities disappeared.

The error log of HA start did show following inconsistencies:

I removed at all sensor definitions within NodeRed the category "config" and leave the field empty. After Restart of HA all entities were acquired.

Definition of new sensor with empty category field also is working - so far solved for me.

Looks like the new check was added here https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/101471

Quick fix: in /custom_components/nodered/__init__.py lines 189 and 190, change to:

#        if category == "config":
#            return EntityCategory.CONFIG

i.e. comment these lines out, then restart. The entities reappear.
