How to increase reporting interval / time?

  • Way back in an older firmware I seem to remember being able to define the interval of sensor measurement, i.e: check sensors every xx seconds.

    I cannot seem to find this setting in the latest firmware?

    I have an issue where two (of my 30+) devices are reporting data to Home Assistant 1x per second, which is far too fast. Any ideas how to reduce this interval? Tried the usual reset / reboot / update firmware.

  • Found a workaround in Home Assistant.

    If a Shelly device is spamming out too much information (for whatever reason), it can clog up the HA History Graph and other UI elements.

    So, in HA, you can add the a "refresh_interval" to the History Graph YAML, increasing the value to something larger than default (which seems to have been 1 second). I used 20 seconds, and no more UI issues.

    Code
    type: history-graph
    refresh_interval: 20
    entities:
    - entity: sensor.shelly_switch_dog_blanket_power
    hours_to_show: 24
