August doorbell polling interval

I am looking to have my August doorbell trigger an automation using HA when someone rings the doorbell. The problem is, the polling interval for my doorbell seems to be too long and it results in a long time between someone ringing the doorbell and the automation getting called, sometimes as much as a minute. This defeats the purpose of my automation.

Is there any way I can shorten the polling period? Putting scan_interval under the august component in configuration.yaml didn’t help, in fact, it disabled the entire August integration.

Any help is appreciated!

I have the same problem. Do you solved it?

Nope, no solution unfortunately.

The polling interval is 5 seconds. The problem would be on the cloud august service being slow, nothing to be done on the home assistant side.
