# 2.0.7

## 🐛 Bug fixes

- When you flip "Home Assistant state changes" on while the other, mutually-exclusive "state changes (without attributes)" toggle is already on, the flow correctly rejects it (state_changes_exclusive error) — but then re-renders the form using the old stored config values instead of what you just submitted. Now fixed, to use the newly supplied values.

## 📚 Documentation

- Additional Home Assistant events doc now gets a screenshot of what the full dialog looks like, and text improved.

# 2.0.6

## ✨ Enhancements

- OTLP validation now sends a single real log record, clearly marked as a configuration validation message, instead of an empty payload
- Some backends reject empty payloads (Loki with 422, Snowflake Observe with 400), and treating those codes as success also hid genuine problems such as a wrong encoding
- 400 and 422 responses are now reported as connection failures
- The message text is shown in the OTLP setup, options and reauth forms

# 2.0.5

## ✨ Enhancements

### Home Assistant Alignment

- Counters now persist properly as stats
- Diagnostic counter sensors (format errors, posting errors, events, postings) use the `total_increasing` state class instead of `measurement`
- **Warning**: existing long-term statistics for these sensors were recorded as measurements (mean/min/max). After upgrading, Home Assistant may report a state class change under *Developer Tools → Statistics*; use *Fix issue* there to delete or keep the old statistics

## 📝 Other changes

### Internal

- Added `ty` as additional type checker and tightened up some types

## 🐛 Bug fixes

- Ruff checks extended, tightened, and fixes applied
- OTel formatting handles infinity correctly
- Dependencies updated

# 2.0.3

## 🐛 Bug fixes

- Prevent `state_changed` event handling mutating event data and interfering with subsequent handlers

# 2.0.2

## 🐛 Bug fixes

- Fixed test issues on CI, and improve HA async compatibility for log event handler

# 2.0.1

# 2.0.0

## ✨ Enhancements

### Root Log Handler

- New way to capture logs at any level
- `system_log_event` based logging is clean but limited to WARN and ERROR levels
  - System Log Event usage requires a YAML change to fire event
- Config now has a choice of using Python root logger
  - Configurable to a minimum log level (default `INFO` can be `DEBUG` if needed) which captures all logging
  - Reuses same logic as System Log to tie back exceptions to source code

# 1.6.0

## ✨ Enhancements

### py3.13 and py3.14

- Automated testing and linting is done for both Python 3.13 ( with the corresponding 2026.2 max Home Assistant version) and Python 3.14 with the latest Home Assistant public release

### Home Assistant Event improvements

- Corrected name of `repairs_issue_registry_updated`
- Improved description of core changes and serializing JSON
- Automation and script events generate title now only with entity_id for clarity and consistency with other events
- Tidied up ConfigFlow UI for Home Assistant standard events
- Defined message titles for all the device/entity/label/floor etc registries
- `system_log_event` is usually suppressed as an event name, since its noisy in a purely logging context. It can now optionally be emitted like any other event name, helpful if remote_logger being used more as a HA event store
