29Gal temperature sensor is not showing up in HA.

2

Can you show us the configuration yaml for the dallas sensor. Also in ESPHome dashboard, is the sensor showing up in the logs? How often have you set it to update?

3

yes it is showing up in the log, check last item, update interval is default.

sensor:
  - platform: dallas
    address: 0xcc3c8df648c32e28
    name: "29Gal temperature"

and

# Example configuration entry
dallas:
  - pin: GPIO23

ESP logs

'29Gal temperature': Got Temperature=22.4°C
16:17:50	[D]	[sensor:127]	
'29Gal temperature': Sending state 22.37500 °C with 1 decimals of accuracy
16:18:15	[D]	[esp32_hall:016]	
'ESP32 Hall Sensor': Got reading 117 µT

I would delete integration and then delete ESPHome dashboard entry (after backing up yaml). Rediscover esp and set up both dashboard and integration.

OR

set up a new esp template which picks up the dallas and creates a brand new entity (with the same values). Essentially you are forcing a way around your sensor not appearing

OR

Somebody has an even better idea…

Already tried the delete integration and re-add method. Don’t want to re-create with new entity. too much data associated with entity.

6

Create a new entity and then in HA rename it or HA template to the name of the previous entity. At the very least it will allow you to get the data into HA and then work out how to aggregate with previous

7

I might also make a change to the dallas sensor; either make it internal only …upload. then change it back and reload or change name and see whether that shows up … and then change it back …if you do a search on Developer Tools / States is the old entity still there? Does it show states and attributes? At what point did it stop showing up in HA? Did you make a change?

Same issue with another board and another Dallas sensor. Added Dallas sensor to it and it is not showing up in HA. pervious one resolved on its own.

Hello yousaf465, I am setting up a new ESP32 with a Dallas sensor and I seem to have this same issue: Temperature is ok in the ESP32 log, but it’s not sowing up in HA.
Have you been able to resolve this? Thanks for your help

10

it resolved on it own.
try re-adding method in HA.

11

Hum … thanks for your response, I tried various things, but I don’t seem to be able to remove compleatly the old ESP, it keeps popping back up when I reconnect to re-add. Is there a specific “method” you are refering to? Rgds.

For my case i have to set id: and name:.

13

this is the way, adding name worked - thanks
