New ESP8266 device not showing sensor in HA (latest ESPHome)

New added device in ESPHome is not detected / discovered. I guess therefore not showing the sensors.

I use the ESPHome integration for quite some time. Today I added a new device from scratch.
The code compiled and uploaded to the NodeMCU.
The device is showing online in the ESPHome dashboard. Both logifiles as wel as the webpage can be accessed without issues. (HA and devices are in the same network)
The existing devices / sensors work fine (as before)

HA: Home Assistant 2023.2.5
Supervisor 2023.01.1
Operating System 9.5
Frontend 20230202.0 - latest
ESPHome: 2023.2.4

Did you add it in devices and integration?

Hi,
thx for the reply.
Not sure what you mean, but I have esphome installed in HA as an add-on.

Then the (discovered ) devices are shown as an integration.image
These are the already existing devices.
The newly created device (RainDance) is online in the ESPHome, but not discoved / shown as a device

.

What I did so far:
Restarted HA a few times
remove the jest added device and added it with new name
restarted HA.

You need to add the node:

You will need to go into integrations and add it before it will show up. As Hellis81 was trying to say.

if that doesn’t work.

Show us the yaml code. And download the logs.

thx Hellis81,
That worked.
Just for my understanding. Why where previous devices discovered (and not anymore). As from a test last week, The device device RGBLed_v1 was auto discovered.
Furher (for what its worth) I understand adding an Integration, but adding a device as a node from the ESPHome integration, is not logical to me (yet), as said, while these were auto-discovered previously.

It’s even enabled…

You do the same thing to pair a ZigBee device.
Probably z-wave and thread also, not sure though since I don’t have it.
Sometimes the device is automatically discovered sometimes not.

Hi,
Just to let you know. This morning I replaced the NodeMCU / ESP device with another one and uploaded the same code. Now it is discovered immediately…

Thx for providing me the workaround in case a device is not discovered.
