This {% term integration %} allows you to detect presence by looking at devices connected to a UniFi AP. This device tracker differs from Ubiquiti UniFi because it doesn't require the UniFi Network application.
To use this device tracker in your installation, add the following to your {% term "configuration.yaml" %} file.
{% include integrations/restart_ha_after_config_inclusion.md %}
