A few release ago the knx entities “dashboard” has been introduced.
But i do not actually understand how to use it and i do not find any documentation.
Is there anything available?
Best regards,
Stefan
Just hit the + Add button in the right lower corner. Imho it’s self explanatory.
One thing that may not be obvious is that YAML configured entities will not appear here.
Oh i think my question was to general :).
Is there any difference between adding entities here vs. in yaml?
While i understand the KNX configuration (which is obviously the same i can do in yaml).
What is the entity config for? Is this to combine multiple entities into a device?
And what are the options under “Advanced” good for? (Config/Diagnostics)
Is addings sensor throught the UI on the roadmap too?
The device grouping is the only difference currently.
Yes… and for setting a default name.
Same as for YAML entity_category. https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/core/entity/#registry-properties
Technically it’s possible. There is no roadmap though as I don’t want to commit to plans / dates / deadlines for a hobby. Contributions are always welcome 
Ok thank you!
As much as I remember de UI entities have a unique id, while the yaml entities are using the GAs as id. So the GAs of the UI entities might be changed without resulting in new entities, while this is not possible for yaml entities.
Pls correct me if I am wrong!
To be precise, they use some of the GAs, so you can change the others, but changing one of the significant GAs creates a new entity.
