Friendly_name instead device_id
Closed this issue · 2 comments
Hi,
In home assistant y can change the friendly name and the entity name but not device_name. Can i configure friendly_name or entety_name in your amazing card?. Your card works as expected but name showed is a serial number and it's difficult to know wich device belong to each serial number.
Thanks a lot.
Best regards!!!
The names showed in the map are given by Zigbee2mqtt, you can customize them, see https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/information/configuration.html for the friendly_name option.
In fact if you customize them in this way, HomeAssistant will automatically use the same names when mqtt auto discovery is enabled, which is true in most cases, see https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/integration/home_assistant.html
