### Unknown Frigate instance `frigate`
e.g. `API error whilst subscribing to events for unknown Frigate instance frigate`
If you are using a custom `client_id` setting in your `frigate.yml` file (the
configuration file for the Frigate backend itself), you must tell the card about
it via the `client_id` parameter:
```yaml
cameras:
- camera_entity: camera.my_frigate_camera
frigate:
client_id: my-frigate
```
See [Frigate engine configuration](configuration/cameras/engine.md?id=frigate)
for more details.
If you're not using a custom `client_id`, your Frigate integration is likely not
installed correct.
