After restarting home-assistant, node-red shows entities like this
and I have to press this button
to make it look like this
I guess node-red has to pull the information from home-assistant to get the correct name.
My question is, is there a way to automate this button press? For example, schedule node-red to pull this information at regular intervals?
Thanks

On the edit server page, UI settings, are all the selectors set to friendly name? If yours looks different, there is probably an update in mange palette.
Is there a reason you don’t have “Using the Home Assistant Add-on” checked?
