How to discover a reactivated device?

[nicknol]

I have a set of sensors that I only use in not-winter time (outdoor sensors). I deactivated them last autumn, in winter I detected and started to use battery notes.
I submitted the device to Andrew's library, I double checked and yes it's there.
Today I reactivated the devices but they are not discovered by battery notes.
=> how could I trigger the discovery? Is there a service call?

Battery notes will perform discovery on a HA restart and also every 24 hours from a restart, mainly to detect if a new battery type is in the library but this will also work for new devices.

If they're still not showing up, try a manual add, you should be able to choose the device in the first screen and it will pick up the battery type from the library in the second. If not showing in the list on the first screen then the device isn't supported, if battery type is not automatically filled in the second screen then there's something not quite right on the make/model in the library.

I have to admit that I was a bit impatient and restarted HA 30 hours after I reactivated the devices. The devices showed up as new integrations and the information from the library was proposed.

Before I tried to add them manually but the information from the library wasn't proposed.

Anyways, they work for me now. ☺

I will be more patient when I have a similar case.

and: big thanks to you @andrew-codechimp 🥇
