I have added the waze travel time and it seems to work well.
I took a look at my log though, and see a lot of errors.
Has anyone else seen this?
Is there something wrong with the service?
Or could it be my setup?

Here is my (simple) sensor:
- platform: waze_travel_time
origin: !secret waze_home
destination: !secret waze_work
region: 'US'
Thanks!

I have the same errors (occured since 0.88.0) seems to work fine though. I also have a parsing error but this only occurs on startup.
It’s an error in the response from the server. Search the forums for another thread called “Waze Travel Time Update” in the Share your Projects section. This error is discussed and some attempts to fix it were discussed in the past 20 or so posts.
EDIT: You can try and chose a different region and it will force the component to use a different Waze server that won’t respond with that error, but your route calculations might be wrong.

There’s no way to fix it in this version.
This may work in the version coming soon. My response in that thread is jumping the gun in regards to an address issue.
EDIT: A safe approach that MAY fix the error temporarily would be to use the current version but change the line:
REQUIREMENTS = ['WazeRouteCalculator==0.9']
to
REQUIREMENTS = ['WazeRouteCalculator==0.6']
and run it as a custom_component.
I’m not 100% sure this will work because I believe that Waze changed the api. I can’t say for sure as I never looked into this prior to this release because the WazeRouteCalculator has never had problems before.

I get these in my logs as well. The sensors do seem to miss updates sometimes but the majority of the time they seem to be fairly accurate.
Personally I prefer logs getting spammed vs inaccurate route info by forcing the version which may or may not work.
I rely on these sensors to notify me of what my commute time will be in the afternoons and it has not failed me yet.

What you’re posting isn’t the waze travel time component. It’s an iframe card with a waze url. I recommend you create a new post.

what name are you trying to add? It most likely has to do with your characters that you are adding. I.E. wrap it in quotes if you have odd characters.

the code should be:
- platform: waze_travel_time
name: anything
origin: 'address 1'
destination: 'address 2'
region: 'US'
if that doesn’t work you need to paste the error here.

Because your entity_id changed, when you changed the name…

ty – its the simple thing
Hi all,
I’m getting an error in the log file at star-up:
Log Details(ERROR): The waze_travel_time platform for the sensor integration does not support platform setup. Please remove it from your config.
The sensor appears to otherwise function though.
- platform: waze_travel_time
origin: !secret iphone_family_member
destination: zone.home
region: 'EU'
name: Family Member ETT Home
Any ideas?
