Describe the bug
Attempted to install this on my home assistant, where I also have frigate installed. The default URL (some magic URL I don't recall it specifically) didn't work though I expected it to. I just guessed I could write "http://ha.local:5000" (has is my host name, and I think 5000 was the port) instead and it did work. But then I thought perhaps http://localhost might have been a better choice, lest I rename the host? But there is no way to change it.

What is the question?
Home Assistant does not offer any way to change initial config flow variables (such as url/hostname). If you submitted the wrong URL for your backend, you'll need delete the integration and re-add it using the 3-dots menu, from the
Settings -> Devices & Services page:
What is the question?
Should the default URL the integration provides work, if frigate is installed via the home assistant add-on? It had a weird host name (not localhost), seemed to be default for the integration.
depends which addon you install, they are all listed in the frigate docs https://docs.frigate.video/integrations/home-assistant#hassos-addon
Please re-open if there is more to discuss.
