How do I exclude "{Sensor name} Attribute Updated event was fired" in logbook?

not_a_coder · August 14, 2022, 2:56pm

I have two Samsung Smartthings Multipurpose Sensors that are clogging up the logbook when they fire events. All it says is “{Sensor name} Attribute Updated event was fired” and no entity is provided or referenced. Below is an example of the Smartthings Dryer Door

I have already excluded all of the related entities in configuration.yaml under logbook exclude and restarted but the messages still appear in logbook.

What is the text that I need to put in the logbook exclude list so that the event firing doesn’t appear?

I’m wondering the exact same thing. My logbook is completely spammed with messages from ZHA regarding events fired.

Same problem with Aqara door/window sensor (via ZHA/SkyConnect).

I raised an issue recently - giving it a bit of traction there might help get the developers moving on a solution

### The problem Since I switched from Deconz to ZHA, my logbook is overrun with… entries created by the ZHA Integration I have found no way to prevent these entries from appearing in the logbook (which makes the logbook very difficult to read) ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/65863752/209585076-5ec950a0-98c0-4900-826f-180e873d6315.png) Having over 100 Zigbee devices this results in the Logbook consisting of about 70-75% ZHA Events with the remaining 25-30% being those events in which I have expressed an interest in being reported I have attempted to exclude ZHA events in the logbook configuration by domain ``` logbook: exclude: domains: - zha ``` I have attempted to exclude ZHA events in the logbook via recorder configuration where I can exclude event_types ``` recorder: exclude: event_types: - zha_event - zha.zha_event ``` Recorder config, IMO, should be the solution to remove these logbook entries - I can only imagine that I am targeting the wrong event_types, however this is how they appear in my (MariaDB) Database I have attempted to prevent the logging in logbook by reducing the logging level for the integration (in the vain hope that this might be a factor) ``` logger: default: info logs: homeassistant.components.zha: critical ``` I have verified that this issue occurs regardless of the Enable/Disable debug logging setting for the integration ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/65863752/209584437-6f7e4c9b-43eb-41ca-9891-cc2470f92f0a.png) I have attempted to identify in the codebase if and where any recorder and logbook exclusions are taken into consideration when the deciding to log into the logbook ### What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue? 2022.12.8 ### What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core? _No response_ ### What type of installation are you running?
