I all of a sudden got invalid configuration with Recorder
do I need this and what’s it for
If I do how do I fix
if not not how do I remove !
The first step when you get an error message on Home Assistant (really this applies to literally any software) is look at the logs. In this case, the logs are in a .log file in your configuration directory.
The error is probably not actually recorder but some other configuration issue in your yaml. It can’t load recorder because something else is blocking it.
The second step when you want to know what a particular integration is, is to Google it, or search it on the Home Assistant integrations page.
Read the documentation.
But you need to fix your broken configuration to really solve the problem, because after you remove recorder: from the file, the next thing after that will break. Something ABOVE the recorder component is breaking.
It would also be helpful to also post the exact error you are seeing, so someone can point you in the right direction.
its ok ive got it working now thank you though
