Show detected BLE devices

Hi.
I’ve just configured an ESP32 board as a BLE server.
It is recognized by another ESP32 board directly connected to my HA server:

I’d like to show in Home Assistant dashboard that it is detected and any characteristics like name and TX Power.
Is it possible?
And if yes, how?
Thanks in advance

Have a look at the BLE tracker component.
There you can set up a name for the Mac address and create a sensor with the RSSI value

Hey setting up the BLE server: by using ESPHOME? In that case I would be interested …. Reeds, Wim
