The problem

Hiya folks, thanks for your support and hard work.

FYI only - I noticed the below in the logs, it asked that I raise a bug report, so just dropping it in here.

Not quite sure why it wants a bug in core, rather than in the custom component that created the lock entity.
As I say, if you need any additional information, please let me know.

This should have been reported in the custom component issue tracker instead.

@joostlek - no worries, I'll report it there.

Is there a better place to get some feedback to the HASS folks - the error specifically said to report the issue at this URL - https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22integration%3A+bold%22 - in this case under HASS core rather than the custom integration?

Thank you!

@jamespreedy is the lock from this custom integration: https://github.com/lwestenberg/homeassistant_bold ? If it is, how have you installed the custom integration?

@emontnemery - correct, https://github.com/lwestenberg/homeassistant_bold. It was installed using HACS. 👍🏻

I can't reproduce the issue, I get:

[homeassistant.helpers.entity_registry] 'lock' from integration bold has a non string unique_id '12345', please report it to the author of the 'bold' custom integration

Edit: I can indeed reproduce it.

Probably something changed on the "lock" integration. I'll have a look ;)

Thanks for reporting @jamespreedy !

@tim427 - thanks mate! Appreciate I can't help with the PR, but happy to help test / debug logs / anything I can do to help.
Have a great week. 😀

The incorrect issue tracker link is fixed by PR #118016

With that PR:

2024-05-24 08:42:03.990 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.helpers.entity_registry] 'lock' from integration bold has a non string unique_id '12345', please report it to the author of the 'bold' custom integration

I'm closing this issue now since the problem is in a custom integration and the wrong issue tracker link has been fixed
