Allowlist_external_dirs Integration not found Error

Configuration

I try to save video from my BLINK camera to hass.
My configuration:
____________________________-

# Loads default set of integrations. Do not remove.
default_config: 
# Load frontend themes from the themes folder
frontend:
  themes: !include_dir_merge_named themes

allowlist_external_dirs:
  - '/homeassistant/videos/'
  
automation: !include automations.yaml
script: !include scripts.yaml
scene: !include scenes.yaml

________________________________-

when I start hass I get following error:

Logger: homeassistant.setup
Source: setup.py:221
First occurred: 16:13:40 (1 occurrences)
Last logged: 16:13:40

Setup failed for 'allowlist_external_dirs': Integration not found.

System is Rasperry Pi HAOS:

I am stuck, please help!

changed configuration.yaml as follows:

default_config:
..
..
homeassistant:
  allowlist_external_dirs:
    - '/config/videos'
    - '/config/snapshots'
...

then restarted HA in safe mode and the again normal mode

Now it is working OK.

homeassistant:
allowlist_external_dirs:
- ‘/tmp’
- ‘/snapshots’
- ‘/video’

I couldn’t restart in safe mode with this error:

Failed to restart Home Assistant

The system cannot restart because the configuration is not valid: Invalid config for ‘homeassistant’ at configuration.yaml, line 10: Not a directory ‘allowlist_external_dirs->2’, got ‘/video’ Invalid config for ‘homeassistant’ at configuration.yaml, line 9: Not a directory ‘allowlist_external_dirs->1’, got ‘/snapshots’

Most probably you have an indentation error in the above, but we cannot tell you what it is since you didn’t format your code correctly.
