Hello,
This feature request is about using “Manage Entities” GUI from Alexa and Google Assistant integration to configure Recorder (and maybe History) component. I find this interface very clear and intuitive. This is basically the same functionality: choose domains and entities exposed to component.
Please vote!

Bringing the logging and recorder settings to the UI, for example to entity configuration. This makes it less annoying to add new entities and turning logging off.

I don’t really love the cloud ui, but any ui is better than no ui
