Sun2 elevation

Configuration

hi I’ve downloaded sun2 but would like to update the sun elevation more frequent, it updates automatically just over every 4 minutes, I want it to reload every 30 seconds instead, is this possible?

You can try to use the sun2.reload and automate this
pnbruckner/ha-sun2: Home Assistant Sun2 Sensor

Thanks, how would I do this, sorry for the newb question

Try this instead, it is meant to poll for data. If it does not work then go for more drastic measures.

action: homeassistant.update_entity
data:
  entity_id:
    - sensor.your_azimuth_sensor

You can add the above ‘action’ to a automation, but try first via above if the entity-update or the reload actually does update things

EDiT, e.g.for geoJson this does not work

thanks for the help, that sorted it to update every 30 seconds when sun2 elevation is below 3.1 degrees then stops refreshing every 30 seconds when reaches 2.5 degrees
