Altering config entries
· One min read
Starting from Home Assistant 2024.3, modifications to a ConfigEntry should use hass.config_entries.async_update_entry.
Directly setting attributes on the ConfigEntry object is deprecated and will start to fail in version 2024.9 and later.
There is no deprecation period for directly setting unique_id on the ConfigEntry as doing so will corrupt the internal state, and doing so will start to fail immediately.
The following attributes must now be set via hass.config_entries.async_update_entry:
- data
- minor_version
- options
- pref_disable_new_entities
- pref_disable_polling
- title
- unique_id
- version
Tests must ensure that MockConfigEntry objects are added to Home Assistant via entry.add_to_hass(hass) before calling hass.config_entries.async_update_entry.
