ESP32 won't work as a proxy

Hi,

I have followed all the steps on this page. However, I can’t get my ESP to work as a proxy. It is found in the ESP dashboard, it is online there, I also find it with the ESP integration. But I can’t find any BT-devices.

I don’t see where you’ve added BT Proxy to your YAML.

Also, what BT devices are you expecting it to find?

The BT proxy in YAML was the solution, thanks a lot!

I’m working with Shelly BLU motion sensors and Xiaomi Mi Flower. Which can now both be found.
