Hello everyone. I have Home Assistant Core with the default SQLite DB ed zigbee2mqtt on Docker. A Zigbee MMQ temperature sensor is broken and I would like to replace it. I would like to “hook” the history of the previous sensor to the new one, how do I do it?

In that case, try to delete the entire device, just keep note of the entity names.

Just rename the new entity to exactly the same name as the old entity.

Thanks, are these the steps i need to take? Delete device Shouldn’t I delete the story too? [immagine] Rename the new entity to exactly the same name as the old entity [immagine]

Thank you, very kind, the steps are clearer now. In my entity the delete button is disabled. I can’t find anything about this in the post you suggested. Do you know how I can delete it?

I would delete the “temperature entity” and any other entity you want history for.
Then rename the new entities.
Finally delete the entire old device.
