If you want to define a specific interval at which your device is being polled for data, you can disable the default polling interval and create your own polling automation.

To add the automation:

  1. Go to {% my integrations title="Settings > Devices & services" %}, and select your integration.
  2. On the integration entry, select the {% icon "mdi:dots-vertical" %}.
    • Then, select System options and toggle the button to disable polling. Disable polling for updates
  3. To define your custom polling interval, create an automation.
    • Go to {% my automations title="Settings > Automations & scenes" %} and create a new automation.
    • Define any trigger and condition you like.
    • Select Add action, then, select Other actions.
    • Select Perform action, and from the list, select the homeassistant.update_entity action. Update entity
  4. Save your new automation to poll for data.
