Hello,
I am running local MQTT broker and I am sending temperature and humidity values to Gladys:

I have created MQTT device with temperature, humidity features and added to the room.

Interesting enough I can see humidity but NOT temperature values. !? I can not see any spelling error, See attached pictures;

Can you check value sent in humidity topic ? It should be a numeric only.
You can try with https://mqttx.app/

Hi @cicoub13,

Using command line:

mosquitto_pub -h rock5b.local -t "gladys/master/device/mqtt:matter/feature/mqtt:temperature/state" -m "25"

And I can see that on MQTT integration UI state message is updated: Last value received a few seconds ago.

But Dashboard is Not

sigidagi · June 1, 2023, 11:20am

This is not a case for humidity:

mosquitto_pub -h rock5b.local -t "gladys/master/device/mqtt:matter/feature/mqtt:humidity/state" -m "33"

gladys_temp5

cicoub13 · June 1, 2023, 12:55pm

My bad When you choose the device feature, you have to select Temperature under Temperature Sensor (and not Air Conditioning/Thermostat/Device Sensor)

You should see a selector with Unit

sigidagi · June 2, 2023, 6:52am

Yes, that was the issue, not right ‘Temperature’ was chosen.
I can see that dashboard has limited widgets to choose,… and I can select widget which is not connected to any integrated device ( maybe different mqtt topic path ? ) I am not UX developer, but by my opinion it would be nice to select only those widget which are related to already defined devices in integration page.

Another question: How to add pressure widget to the dashboard?
Cheers

Maybe you didn’t see it but there is a widget “Devices in room” that let you display any kind of device.

You can display your pressure (or any device) here:

“Temperature in room” and “humidity in room” widgets are “special” widgets, because they calculate the average temperature/humidity value of all temperature/humidity sensors in this room.
