Telegram Bot. Incorrect Timeout Diagnostics

by ADMIN 44 views

The Problem

When using the Telegram bot integration in Home Assistant Core, a diagnostic error occurs when the timeout parameter is set to 60 seconds. This results in a "Timed out" error, even though the timeout value is set to 60 seconds.

Example of Error

The error occurs as follows:

  • 00:00:17 - New Telegram message
  • 00:00:20 - Sending
  • 00:00:40 - Timed out

This indicates that the timeout value is not being respected, and the error occurs after 20 seconds, not 60 seconds.

The issue occurs in version 2025.3.2 of Home Assistant Core.
