I still have trouble understanding how to add an MQTT device without YAML. It seems there’s an elaborate GUI flow made to deal with this, so why is this so complicated?
I have MQTT messages coming in. Their topics are e.g.
wx/temperature wx/humidity wx/light_lux wx/rain_mm wx/wind_dir_deg
How do I tell Home Assistant to just add the bloody device, and let me configure units afterwards and not type out 600 lines of YAML manually?


that sounds like its missing the MQTT auto discovery topics, you could write a shell script to add that. or there might be a HACS thing to do it
