Add Template Sensors to Device page

been using for a while with no real issues, if you merge or move entities from one to another, those entities from the orginal device will be move to the other device and thus the original device can be empty ( imo this is expected behaviour), If you remove the device from the merge or remove the entities from the new devcie they do move back to original device with no problem.

in this example ii have merged a Zigbee wall socket and a Shelly PM mini so I get a switch and power readings in the one device.


the Shelly device now has no entities, but it is still required as it has the visit link to open the Shelly webpage, granted it would be nice for ALL info for all device to show in the Main new device, but this is not an issue really.

I was hopeful this would solve my objective of grouping multiple REST entities under a single device. Sadly it does not seem to support REST sensors.

if your taking about the above integration, make sure your sensors have a unique_id.

Thanks. That did the trick!

You sold me. I will give it a try. Thanks for taking the time. I Appreciate it.

If I have a template binary sensor set up via YAML, I can’t add it to a device because YAML doesn’t support that.

But if I set it up via the UI I can’t use the delay_off configuration variable because the UI doesn’t support that.

This whole YAML vs UI thing is starting to get ridiculous now.
