[BUG] The name of the bridge app does not get exposed. #29489

Open lecndav opened 11 months ago

lecndav commented 11 months ago

Reproduction steps

Which attribute of which cluster needs to be set to expose the name of the bridge app? Every time the example bridge app gets commissioned via Apple Home the name of the bridge is "Matter Accessory". While setting the node-label of bridged devices (e.g. lamps) of the bridged-device-basic-information cluster exposes the name correctly, it does not apply for the bridge itself. Using Alexa to commission the bridge, the name is empty. "Matter Accessory" seems to be a fallback on Apple.

Cleary it is somehow possible since Philips Hue managed to expose the name of their bridge.

Thanks for any advice.

@lecndav I suspect Apple Home gets the name information from the DCL, not the accessory itself.
