i changed the state but not showing anywhere
Yes its finally showing up. but do i need to manually assign drivers if its not available?
I’m seeing the Zigbee HA page on Home Assistant in your screenshot, but you said you are using Zigbee2MQTT. Confused by this. Z2M isn’t required to join device to Home Assistant, but for the maximum compatibility options, Z2M is a better choice.
On the Hubitat hub, you must select the device entities in the Home Assistant Device Bridge application you would like to be imported to your Hubitat hub. As mentioned, they must then be actuated to appear in the Hubitat device list. Note that buttons joined to Home Assistant do not have entitles and will not show up in the Hubitat device list.

@SmartHomePrimer i mentioned earlier i tried using zigbee2mqtt but some device do not work and later i am using HA as it detects all devices.
Now its showing like this:
now when i click the _TZ3000 outlet its showing me below
should i add a driver and check it works or not ?
another example
i can see the alarm properly in HA and works like below
but when i am going to HE its showing me
i tried to use the driver from https://github.com/kkossev/Hubitat/tree/main/Drivers/Tuya%20Smart%20Siren%20Zigbee
it shows like below but no button works
also my smart outlet showing 5 entities like below
This happened to me the other day with a Philips Hue motion sensor.
I tried the option, Pair While Exchanging Keys In The Clear, whatever that means.
It worked.
I never had that issue before, though, pairing a lot of Hue motions to C-8.
Only "switch" in this case will be an actionable entity. The others are just information as in the example where you added the entity "sensor.tz3000.okaz9tjs_ts011f_rms_voltage" and the resulting device on Hubitat shows "power: 0" in the Current States.
For your siren, regardless of the name of the switches in HA, you have only two actionable entities and they are both named switch. Import both of them, and one will be the siren. I've no clue what the one showing in Zigbee HA that is simply labelled "Switch" is supposed to do.

I used to run Zigbee HA on Home Assistant as well, and that stuff drove me nuts, where an feature of a device is simply labelled "Switch" as an example. I now use Z2M and find it much more detail oriented and more device features are available overall.
I had problems with doing it myself, but I'm told that it is possible to run both ZHA and Z2M together at the same time so you can choose which integration you want to join your Zigbee devices to. However, I'm not personally recommending that based on my experience.
@SmartHomePrimer i had the same feeling, my initial goal was to install z2m and use it HE, but after installing driver and app. I added a virtual device but i am not what to do next. the devices which were shown in the Z2M portal was not showing HE I followed this guide
but i was unable to go further
You don't select the drivers manually if that's what you're doing. You simply add them to the Home Assistant Device Bridge if they are not part of the base installation. They will be selected automatically if appropriate for that device.
In the case of your siren, I only see one "Switch", but it looks like there should be two entities. Make sure you have not missed it in the list. I suggest you change the device names on Home Assistant and let it rename the entities so it's not so confusing to look at a list of very similar names. It would be much easier to identify in the list on your Hubitat hub.
The Z2M routing driver for Hubitat and the Z2M integration on Home Assistant are not the same. The Z2M integration for Home Assistant is highly developed by hundreds of contributors and allows two-way communication. The Z2M routing driver currently only maps the device state to Hubitat.

You can check if your devices are supported by Zigbee2MQTT here. It's not impossible, but quite rare that a device in supported by the Zigbee HA integration on Home Assistant, but not by the Z2M integration on Home Assistant.
it works with Z2M but i want to know how i can i control using HE using routing driver
At the present time, you cannot control any device using the Z2M routing driver by @birdslikewires. You can only see the device state (i.e. Open/Close, ON/OFF, etc.)
@renovatio The MQTT routing driver and the Home Assistant Device bridge (HADB) are 2 different things. If you use HADB you DO NOT choose a driver for your imported devices: HADB will install the correct driver for you. If you change the driver, the device will stop working (in HE).
For your TZ3000, you get 5 entities in HA so you will get 5 different devices on HE (if you selected all 5 devices in the HADB app). You will get 2 switches and 3 sensors.
