Zorks fdaf151386 Clarification on which username/password to use (#4366)
As the standard Unifi component uses an admin user/pass, clarification that you're using the device SSH user/pass instead seems useful. They are different and will cause a failure if not changed when converted over.

page Ubiquiti Unifi direct AP Instructions how to use a Unifi WAP as a device tracker. 2017-11-17 14:59 true false true true ubiquiti.png Presence Detection 0.59

This platform allows you to detect presence by looking at devices connected to a UniFi AP. This device tracker differs form Ubiquiti Unifi WAP because it doesn't require the Unifi controller software.

To use this device tracker in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
device_tracker:
  - platform: unifi_direct
    host: YOUR_AP_IP_ADDRESS
    username: YOUR_USERNAME
    password: YOUR_PASSWORD

{% configuration %} host: description: The hostname or IP address of your Unifi AP. required: true type: string username: description: The SSH device username used to connect to your Unifi AP. required: true type: string password: description: The SSH device password used to connect to your Unifi AP. required: true type: string {% endconfiguration %}

See the device tracker component page for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked.
