 We use three approaches to fetch the names of devices. Each assumes you have properly named your devices in your existing Homematic setup. As a general advice: Use ASCII for your devices names. Home Assistant won't include non-ASCII characters in entity-names.
 
 1. `json`: The CCU allows to fetch details of the paired devices via JSON-RPC. For this to work you need to add valid credentials to your component-configuration. Guest-access is sufficient to query for device names.
-2. `xml`: If you use a CCU, there is an add-on called the "XML-API". With it installed, you are able to fetch all kinds of information from you CCU using XML-RPC. We can leverage this and fetch the names of devices set within the CCU. We don't support authentication with this method.

We can leverage this and fetch the names of devices set within the CCU. We don't support authentication with this method. The `json` method should be preferred over `xml`. Support for the XML-API is only available for downwards compatibility and may be disabled in a future release.
 3. `metadata`: Homegear provides device-names through the metadata devices internally have. When using an HM-CFG-LAN interface, you typically use a configuration software ("HomeMatic-Komponenten konfigurieren" is the name of the shortcut on your desktop by default) to pair and configure your devices. If you have paired devices, you'll see them listed in a table. The leftmost column (Name) is prefilled with default names. You can click such a name and enter whatever you like.
 
 Resolving names can take some time. So when you start Home Assistant you won't see you devices at first. For a setup with 20+ devices it can take up to a minute until all devices show up in the UI.
