YAML (deprecated, auto-migrated to UI)

device_tracker:
  - platform: mqtt_flespi_message
    devices:
      # flespi channel
      dexif: 'flespi/message/gw/channels/7730/Dexif'
      another: 'flespi/message/gw/channels/7730/another'
      # flespi device

      dexiftelemetry: 'flespi/state/gw/devices/173073/telemetry/position'

Note: YAML configuration is deprecated and will be automatically migrated to config entries on next restart. After migration, remove the YAML config and restart.

Entities

Each configured device creates:

• Device tracker — GPS location with latitude, longitude, accuracy, and battery level
• Sensors — Speed (km/h), Altitude (m), Direction (°), Satellites, Battery voltage (mV)
