Hi all,
I’ve a question regarding the the ‘recorder’ integration in the config.yaml file. So my database is getting quite big (5GB) so I started to implement some rules on which entities are important te recorder and which ones are useless to record.
Now my situation: I’ve a smart energy meter (for gas and power) which I’m reading into my Home Assistant. Ofcourse this is important information for me as I can recall my usage and can compare to like last month or year. So it is important to save these entities for maybe 5 years or so?
Most other entities like states of lights etc I would like to keep for a few days, but most definitely not for years.
How can I make a difference in retention days between entities?
Many thanks!
