Hi everyone,
similar to the Recreate ID function of HA it would be great it the ESPHome integration were to support a recreate device ID/name.
I have found no way of have the integration revert to using the broadcasted name except for modifying the .config files.
Would it be possible for one of the devs to please just modify the Rename function so if someone deletes the name it simply reverts to broadcasted name rather than the undistinct “ESPHome”?
I think that would make more sense and would allow the user to return to automatic device names without rsiky manupulation of the core config files.
Thank you
Alex
P.S.: I was unsure if this is core functionality but I could not find any area that was dedicated to HA integration.
Why the uncertainty?
