Zigbee2mqtt new device not showing in home assistant

Hi
Ive paired alot of devices trough zigbee2mqtt before for them to show up in device list and I the mqtt integration.

Today I added 2 ikea bulbs and they refuse to show up in mqtt or devices.
I tried repairing them and checked so both z2m and mqtt talks to ‘homeassistant’.

Not sure what I can do or check now.
Everything is updated. I even tried to go back a version of z2m. No luck.

I can control the bulbs in the zigbee2mqtt menu. Just can’t expose them to the rest of home assistant…

If you renamed them in Z2M & forgot to tick the update home assistant checkbox, they will still have the old 0x… name inside HA.

Try renaming them again in Z2M & make sure the checkbox is selected inside the popup.

Yeah i tried that several time and also searching for both the 0x name and the renamed name.
It does not even update the amouth of mqtt devices i have when i add the lights…

Check with http://mqtt-explorer.com/ if you can see the devices there.

Yeah they are visable in mqtt explorer. :slight_smile: not sure how to get them in hgome assistant tho…
Seems to be in the Homeassistant/light/0x*****/light/ structure as the others .

Removed and added the mqtt plugin to see if something would change. Nothing did.

Weird. Is this checked?

Yeah thats enabled.
Tried to disable and enable it again. then a restart of the system and no better.
Very wierd.
