REST sensor not showing up under entities

I am experiencing quite an annoying problem. I am trying to add my first REST sensor, and I simply cannot get it to work. My configuration.yaml file looks like this:

# Configure a default setup of Home Assistant (frontend, api, etc)
default_config:

http:
  base_url: ......
  ......
...
...
...
sensor:
  - platform: rest
    resource: http://192.168.1.100:1234/calendar/GetEvents?take=5
    name: Calendar Events

If I try to curl the URL, it works fine. Check configuration: All good. Restarted HA: All good.

If I go to Configuration -> Entities, I cannot find it. I can’t find it under Developer Tools -> States either.

I simply cannot find it anywhere. I don’t have a lot of stuff in my Home Assistant environment, so I would easily be able to spot it under another name, but it’s not there.

What have I done wrong?
