I'm not sure what is causing the cloud requests in the below logs. Is there anyway I can identify it, so that I can stop the requests? The only thing I can think of is that they are coming from Locative, but I deleted everything within the app and also deleted the maker api instance to which it pointed.
what's the ip addr at the end?

As I understand it, some IoT devices on your network at multiple addresses is pinging the hub, but there is no app/device linked to it to respond to the request.
When this happened to me in the past, I had some Tasmota devices trying to reach a hub with no related device on it anymore. I was able to connect to the addresses in question to identify which ones were causing issues.

There are 2. I purposely chopped the end off in case it shouldn’t be posted. I’m out at the moment but will check again when I get back. I didn’t do a Whois search but doubt it would reveal much

It looks like some sort of Cloud based Presence app. Have you tried things like Life360 in the past and removed them? Could be that the cloud server does not know that you no longer are using their service.

Yeah so I was using Locative for presence but deleted the maker api endpoint from the app, before deleting the maker api instance and the app from my phone. I forgot about Life 360, but again I had the app installed on Hubitat along with a maker api instance for it, but have deleted everything there as well.
I would've thought/hoped that once things were deleted, nothing would be trying to access the Hub.
I've checked the IP addresses and both belong to my phone network O2 UK. Switched off the WiFi on mine and my wife's phone and checked the public address - it's hers! So I guess it's the Hubitat app that's trying to connect but although it's on her phone for presence, I'm not sure why the log is referring to connection to an app that doesn't exist.

If you had a dashboard with presence tile that you since removed, the mobile app is trying to post the phone presence. Logging out of the mobile app and back in should resolve the problem.

Thanks @bobbyD - that did the trick.
In the Hubitat app on my wife's phone, selecting 'send geo event' resulted in two log entries 'Clare Has Arrived' for her phone device and the previously detailed error for the hub. I logged out and back in again as suggested and the error is no longer logged - just the 'arrived' message.
Topic can be closed. Thanks.
