About

Entity Assistant exports Home Assistant entities, devices, and areas from the registry to CSV files. It also exports floors and labels, and it can write JSON or YAML output as an alternative to CSV. Each export carries a stale flag with a reason, and a stale-days setting controls the threshold for entries that have not changed. Edited CSV or JSON files can be imported back to update the registries in bulk, with changes only applied to rows in the file and nothing removed. Other actions preview or remove orphaned entities, orphaned devices, and empty areas, capture a registry snapshot, and return a signed download link; removals default to a dry run. A button runs the export with defaults set in the integration options, and it is set up in the UI.

From the README

A Home Assistant custom integration that exports your registry — entities, devices, or areas — to a CSV file, complete with entity_id, area, floor, labels, device metadata, current state, and more. Edit the export in any spreadsheet and import it back to rename, relabel, and reorganize in bulk (new in 2.0 — see Importing edits back). Also identifies and removes orphaned entities, orphaned devices, and empty areas.
