Hi all,
When using 2 existing esp32 boards with esphome (also used for other sensors), I do not understand how these can combine into 1 global presence entity (if possible) in H.A.
I have copied the required sections:
esp32_ble_tracker:
binary_sensor:
- platform: ble_presence
irk: deadbeefsomething
name: “ble_device”sensor:
- platform: ble_rssi
irk: deadbeefsomething
name: “ble_device RSSI”
And on each device these are created, and when the BLE device is near, it does detect the signal strength and passes this into H.A. but these are created as
separate values in H.A. (prefixed by esp-device-id)
I was under the impression that the ‘names’ would stay single in H.A. to be used in automations etc…?

esp32_ble_tracker
component creates a global hub
