REST sensor polling does not work from the second scan

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to use the RESTful platform to fetch data from a Hikvision Access Control Terminal DS-K1T805MBFWX (a fingerprint reader and keypad). Data is collected fine the first time it is polled (upon restart or after “rest entities” reload is performed). However, from the moment the scan_interval is reached the first time and until it is reloaded manually again, attributes dissapear and do not load again unless I reload REST.

Should I do anything to fix this or isn’t the rest platform the right choice for this kind of sensor data fetching?

rest:
  - authentication: digest
    username: "admin"
    password: "xxxxxx"
    scan_interval: 10
    resource: http://192.168.0.75/ISAPI/AccessControl/AcsEvent?format=json
    method: POST
    payload: >-
        {"AcsEventCond": {"searchID": "1","searchResultPosition": 0,"maxResults": 10,"major": 0,"minor": 0,"startTime": "2025-04-17T00:00:00+02:00","endTime": "2035-04-18T23:59:59+02:00","timeReverseOrder": true}}
    sensor:
      - name: "HikReader"
        json_attributes_path: "$.AcsEvent.InfoList[0]"
        value_template: "HikReader"
        json_attributes:
          - "major"
          - "minor"
          - "time"
          - "type"
          - "serialNo"
          - "netUser"
          - "remoteHostAddr"
          - "cardType"
          - "name"
          - "cardReaderNo"
          - "doorNo"
          - "employeeNoString"
          - "userType"
          - "currentVerifyMode"
