UniFi Network integration - official thread

Can someone explain me the first step of the setup in Unifi integration ?

Select sources to create entities from with a drop-down box

  • Create entities from network clients (I don’t see the Unifi devices in that list)

What is a source ?

I don’t get what does it mean. I have actually 92 devices created and nothing is selected into that first question.

How to track only some devices (wired & wifi ) ?

I was able to get this working. UniFi OS Server v5.06 in Home Assistant UniFi Network add-on. I had several ports blocked on my firewall since HA is on my IoT network and UniFi OS Server is on my secure network. Also make sure you re-create your username/pw in UniFi OS for Home Assistant to use. But I ended up using port 11443 in the HA addon and that worked.

What is the latest on supporting UniFi OS Server v5.06? I just upgraded from Network software VM to the OS Server v5.06. Now I deleted my original network from within Home Assistant Unifi Network integration and now it fails to connect. Port change maybe? What I read is that its in EA release so I’m guessing that is the problem.

Also, I seen some forks. Those work OK with OS Server?

Good you solved it yourself :+1:. It’s not recommended running EA with any of the unifi integrations.

Forks of what? The addon?

I briefly read this thread and found at least one fork of the UniFi network add-on using an API integration. I could be totally wrong…

I agree with the EA but all I need the addon to do is disable some PoE ports via an automation.

I really appreciate the QR code feature of this integration. I have been using it to display a QR for people to access the guest network at my home.

However, I’m trying to move away from several different SSIDs for my IoT, main network, and guest networks towards a single SSID utilizing several PPSKs.
I suppose this may be a feature request, but I was hoping to generate a QR code entity for each PPSK on a single SSID. Is this even possible? If so, where could I put a request in? Thanks.

Poe port control is not supported by the official API AFAIK

Not sure if that is possible

Isn’t this POE control?

Yes. But I thought you meant the one.using the official api.

Hi all,

running two old USG 4 Pro i WatchGuard VPN.
The problem I have is that the config disappears when the the UGS is rebooted.

To make it permanent it seems lika I need to be able to edit config.gateway.json and according to this thread from 2021 that is not possible:
Feature: Providing access to data/unifi/data via SSH · Issue #216 · hassio-addons/addon-unifi

Is this still correct?

What config? Nothing expected from the integration at least.

Can anyone tell me, when the next update for the unifi integration in HA will be available? Its still version 10.0.162 and the official release is 10.1.something

That is not the integration, that’s the app / add-on. Not sure who maintains it
