+title: "Waiting for config entry platforms"
+---
+
+Before 2022.8, it was impossible to `await` config entry platforms forwards without a deadlock if one of the platforms loaded by the config entry was not already loaded.
+
+Integrations need to be refactored to replace calls to `hass.config_entries.async_setup_platforms` with `hass.config_entries.async_forward_entry_setups` and/or await all `hass.config_entries.async_forward_entry_setup` to ensure that Home Assistant does not inadventantly reload the integration while entities and platforms are still being set up.
+
+`hass.config_entries.async_setup_platforms` is scheduled to be removed in 2022.12.
