Apply device template to existing auto discovered devices

Modified on 2025-06-10 22:13:46 +0200

Hello,

How do I apply a device/sensor template to existing devices that have had an auto-discover completed on them?

I created a template based on an existing device, but when I tried applying that template to another device with different sensors on it, the template didn't update the sensor lists.

Dear dlederhouse

Please make sure you set the option "Device Rescan" to "Perform auto-discovery for known devices/IPs". This should result in having the according sensors added to existing devices.
