Invalid config for [binary_sensor]: required key not provided @ data['platform']. Got None. (See /config/configuration.yaml, line 317).
Line 317 is
#Arduino CT coil sensors for Sonoff 4 channel Pro's
I just dont understand what may have changed as it all worked fine before the update.
Thanks

The config you posted looks fine.
Are there any other errors, like the mqtt integration not being able to be set up?
What about when you go to the Configuration / Integrations page. Is the mqtt integration there?

Hi Tom,
yes my mosquito broker is set up and I have other MQTT switches and sensors etc that seem to be fine and I have just checked a sonoff pow thats on my water pump and thats reported stat back in the last 5 mins…

I meant the integration not the broker but this precludes that being an issue:
What happens if you put a space after this comment marker #
#Arduino CT coil sensors for Sonoff 4 channel Pro's
Like so:
# Arduino CT coil sensors for Sonoff 4 channel Pro's
That shouldn’t be a problem. YAML syntax seems to be just fine according yamllint:
stdin
4:1 warning missing document start "---" (document-start)
5:2 warning missing starting space in comment (comments)
5:1 warning comment not indented like content (comments-indentation)
55:1 error trailing spaces (trailing-spaces)
None of these should affect the parser.
I think the line numbers in error messages are off by one, i.e. the first line of the file would be line 0.

Ah man, I hope not I have comments all over the rest of the config…
The YAML seems to parse just fine:

OK, so I have just taken a backup of my config then deleted that whole posted code. Then got an error for all my light configs, sensor config and binary sensor configs. Deleted them all and its fine but obviously I am missing a lot…

Seems to correlate with comments indentation.light as a section of its own, without platforms.
Try, e.g.,
light:
#First 4 Channel Pro Sonoff for 2 way lighting
- platform: mqtt
name: "Kitchen lights"
and same with the other.

No, that did not make any difference either. Also tried putting the comment before light:
I have put all my code back now and the first error it pulls is line 235 which is back to the binary sensor error first.

did you run on tasmota? what version?

I am sorry I dont understand where I would do this. I created the config file over time directly in HA file editor.
Crumpy10
July 19, 2021, 8:16pm

Hi, Not sure why you are asking this as its the config file in HA itself that I have problems with. If your asking about the sensor that sends the MQTT messages to HA then I built it myself on an Arduino and it has custom code on it.

July 19, 2021, 8:26pm

I believe it’s due to how your Modbus integration is configured. It has changed significantly and now all Modbus devices are configured under the modbus domain.
You are still using the old way where a Modbus binary_sensor is defined in the binary_sensor domain and its platform is set to modbus. Home Assistant can’t process that so it skips all binary_sensor configurations.

Hi, Yes I noticed a lot had changed. I will take another look at it and get back.
