Feature Request

Track history of recent API calls (last 5-10 calls) for debugging and monitoring.

Problem

Currently, only the latest response is stored. Users can't easily see patterns in API behavior or review recent calls for troubleshooting.

Proposed Solution

Add a configurable history buffer (default: 5 calls):

• Store last N calls with timestamps
• Include request details (rendered templates)
• Include response details (status, body)
• Expose as sensor attribute or separate diagnostic entity

Benefits

• Better debugging for intermittent issues
• See patterns in API responses over time
• Useful for development/testing
• Can track when APIs started failing

Implementation Notes

# In HaapiApiCaller
self._history = []  # List of dicts
HISTORY_SIZE = 5

# After each call
self._history.append({
    "timestamp": datetime.now().isoformat(),
    "status_code": status,
    "response_body": body,
    "request_url": rendered_url,
    "error": error_msg if error else None,
})
self._history = self._history[-HISTORY_SIZE:]  # Keep last N

# In Response sensor
attrs["call_history"] = self._api_caller.history

Considerations

• Could increase database size
• May need size limits per history entry
• Could be opt-in feature
• Consider diagnostic sensor vs main sensor attribute
