A Home Assistant sensor may not appear on the dashboard if it is disabled, hidden, or assigned a specific entity_category. Checking the entity registry settings helps diagnose visibility issues and re-enable missing sensors.
To rename a Home Assistant entity or device, access the entity and device registries to update their names. This process ensures your smart home components are organized and easily identifiable within the system.
The Home Assistant entity state model represents the current condition and attributes of a device or sensor. Understanding this model is necessary for querying entity states and diagnosing why sensors behave unexpectedly.
Grouping Home Assistant entities by device involves managing the device registry to link related entities and assign them to specific areas. This reorganizes your smart home setup for centralized device management.
Yes, you can disable or hide specific Home Assistant entities through the entity registry. Disabling stops the entity from updating, while hiding removes it from the dashboard without stopping its background state updates.
