utility_meter.calibrate not working with the generated utility meters of this integration

utility_meter.calibrate not working with the generated utility meters of this integration

Do you have any clue? I only get

Unable to find referenced entities sensor.foo_energy_counter_daily or it is/they are currently not available

Whereas, the same service-call with a utility meter from the plain utility meter integration is working

service: utility_meter.calibrate
data:
  value: "2"
target:
  entity_id:
    - sensor.bar_energy_counter_daily

The only difference I see, but is most probably causing the error above is

"platform": "utility_meter",

vs

"platform": "powercalc",

of the sensors in the entity registry.

And I think that this is the root cause of the not existing utility_meter.calibrate service for the other user in the community as well, because I think the service is only existing with sensors existing in the platform and working if the sensor is in the platform.

But this is only gut feeling.

Yes you are correct, I have stepped through the code and an entity service only allows entities created by the same integration (domain) to be provided to the service. In this case utility_meter. The utility meters created by powercalc are registered to the powercalc domain which makes them not allowed to be used by the calibrate service. There is not really a workaround I think, because all this code and limitation is in the core codebase. Only thing I can do is replicate the calibrate service as a new service for powercalc. I think I am ok with that as it’s only 2 lines of code.

It’s working. Thanks a lot!
