Oops. I forgot to change the iCloud3 beta version number from b3 to b4 on the update. I fixed that but have not created a new release. Just download it again.

Beta 4 Change Log is at the bottom of this note

iCloud3 is now a true HA Integration that is added and configured on the HA Devices & Settings > Integrations screen. It has been completely rewritten, provides the function and features of v2 and adds many new ones.

When you add iCloud3 on the integrations screen, your current configuration will be migrated. See the Installation and Migration link below for a description of what happens and instructions.

Download the icloud3-beta-#.zip file. It contains the custom__components/icloud3 directory and should be unzipped into the icloud3 custom_components directory. It will over right the iCloud3 v2 files.

THIS IS A BETA RELEASE. ANY BUGS, PROBLEMS AND QUESTIONS SHOULD BE ADDED TO THE ISSUES PAGE OF THIS REPOSITORY, NOT THE ICLOUD3 FORUM. THERE IS A LINK TO THE GITHUB ISSUES ON THE EVENT LOG CUSTOM CARD (THE BUG IN THE UPPER RIGHT-HAND CORNER). THANKS.

ALSO, I HAVE OPEN AN ISSUE TITLED "BETA USERS". PLEASE POST YOUR USER NAME HERE SO I CAN EASILY LET YOU KNOW WHEN AN UPDATE IS AVAILABLE. YOU CAN ALSO SUBSCRIBE TO THIS REPOSITORY.

Beta 4 - 12/27/2022 - Change Log

  1. Inactive/Untracked devices are listed at the end of the Startup Event Log messages.
  2. Fixed some problems displaying the EVent Log when there were no devices to track.
  3. Fixed problem dealing with Gb.ic3_debug_log_write_secs variable not found.
  4. Fixed problem where the Event Log records were not displayed in a timely manner when starting.
  5. The tracking results written to the Log file now include the zone, distance and time values.
  6. Reworked the icloud3-debug.log file:
    - A new file is created when:
    - HA/iCloud3 starts and the Log Level is debug or rawdata or
    - Starting Debug Logging from Event Log > Actions or
    - At midnight when debug logging is on and the file is more thn 20-hours old.
    - Otherwise debug records are added to the existing Debug Log file.
    - If the Log Level is debug or rawdata in the Configurator > Event Log parameters and
    Stop Debug Logging was selected on Event Log > Actions, the configuration will be changed
    to 'info' (no debug logging).
    - If the configuration is set to 'info' (no debug logging) and it is started on Event Log > Actions,
    the configuration is not updated and the debug logging will remain on until midnight, the next
    iCloud3 restart or when it is turned off.

QUESTION: Currently the Exported Event Log file contains the date/time indicating when it was created.
This creates a new file for every export.
Example: 'icloud3-event-log_2022-12-26 18:00:00.log'
Another option is to not have the date/time in the file name so a new Export overrites the last one.
Example: 'icloud3-event-log.log'

      Does anyone have an opinion on this.
