Removed Entities Persist in HA and Cannot be Deleted #236

I had a virtual lock shared to Home Assistant. I removed the lock from Maker API and it says unavailable in Home Assistant but Home Assistant won't let me delete the entityimage

You can delete devices by going to the integrations panel in Home Assistant, opening Hubitat, and clicking the "Configure" button. Devices may be removed during the configuration process.

wow I've never seen that before! Thank you!

You can delete devices by going to the integrations panel in Home Assistant, opening Hubitat, and clicking the "Configure" button. Devices may be removed during the configuration process.

Quick question: is it better to remove from maker API first then remove through the configure option or can you skip the Maker API part and just remove through the configure option?

You should remove them from the Maker API first, and then in the integration. Otherwise, they'll be added back the next time you restart HA.

I should probably just have the integration automatically remove devices that aren't exposed by the Maker API. 🙂
