How to delete bogus device trackers? #35161

Open alderete opened 1 month ago

Feedback

After using the device_tracker.see action to attempt to update the MAC address for an NMAP device tracker (because I upgraded my phone), I now have a bogus device tracker.

I can't seem to delete it because it doesn't have a unique ID. Nor is there a way to add a unique ID.

How do I get rid of this bogus entry?

And, for documentation improvement purposes, maybe explain what the device_tracker.see action does in a little more detail, including use cases and examples.

You know, so idiots like me don't create bogus device trackers and have no way to clean them up.
