anyone dare to point me where this is originating from?

full log details are not very explanatory either:

2022-10-18 13:40:59.719 WARNING (MainThread) [homeassistant.helpers.entity_platform] Ignoring invalid device configuration_url ‘’

10 times in a few millliseconds, not much additional info.

Misery loves company?

I’ve been having the same issue (including “shows up 10 times”). It started a couple/few releases back (I’m currently running 2022.10). I for the life of me can’t find root cause either. Please report back if you find a solution and I will do the same.

company at least… well then we can compare a few things to start ruling things out.

i have 3 suspects so far:
browser_mod and Kef_connector and netatmo
you have any of these?

Good idea!
We both have Netatmo (but not the others). So I reloaded the integration and immediately got the (same) error:

Do you want to fill out a bug report thingy or shall I?

Hah, bingo, why didn’t k think of only reloading one after the other :face_with_monocle:
Never filed a bug report, where to do that ? Go ahead if you up to it.

I’ve been having the same issue and also using Netatmo and browser_mod

Do you also receive 10 occurrences? Have you tried reloading the Netatmo integration and/or the browser_mod integrations to see if that generate a fresh log entry?

my reloading netatmo give a whole other message btw:

    raise ApiError(
pyatmo.exceptions.ApiError: 406 - Not Acceptable - Nothing to drop (7) when accessing 'https://api.netatmo.com/api/dropwebhook'

which is weird:
1 i have no longer the netatmo in confguration.yaml
2 i have not webhooks configured (only have weather station devices)

Thanks for highlighting. This should be gone in the next release.

I’m still getting this error and I’m running the latest HAC 2022.11.1

Yes, I can confirm this is still there.

I am using Netatmo as well.

Indeed, same still happening

I can’t replicate this. Are you sure this is coming from the Netatmo integration?

Yes, reload that integration and it throws it. Note, we don’t have webhook url set

Also having this issue with 1 of my 2 Precence camera’s. It appeared after one WIFI accespoint went down today because of a powerfailure. Everything is up and running again, except rebooting Home Assistant wont’ get my camera back a live in the dashboard. Have seen it before, tomorrow probably it wil work again all suddenly.
It’s like Netatmo has enough of Home Assistant trying to reach my Presence while the wifi is down and they blocked me for a day. All this is my gut feeling and pure speculation because I think that is what I see.

Also runnign 2022.11.1

I think this might be related:

It could if it only happens on start up. But it’s also happening when you just reload that integration.

This sounds more like the camera did not properly propagate/update it’s IP address to the Netatmo API. This is a common issue. You might be able to fix this by rebooting the cameras.
