This platform allows you to detect presence by looking at devices connected to a [UniFi AP](https://www.ubnt.com/products/#unifi). This device tracker differs form [Ubiquiti Unifi WAP](/components/device_tracker.unifi/) 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:
```yaml
# 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](/components/device_tracker/) for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked.
