Greetings:
I’m new to Homeassistant and am struggling to get my system on line. I have a home brewed system that has limped along for 20+ years, and decided to try something better: home assistant!
So here is where I’m stuck now:
I have an ambientweather station. I discovered that on port 80 of my weatherstation there is a page that lets me send the weather station data to any ipaddress/port. Great. I set that to the ip address of my homeassistant and port 7000. I set my AmbientWeather2MQTT addon to look at port 7000, and that worked fine, sortof…I can see the data come accross, json parsed correctly, but can not figure where the data goes from there. I see the data is published with correct payload. Example from the AmbientWeather2MQTT log:
2024-02-14T15:37:39.867Z [mqtt] Publishing 8.4 to homeassistant/sensor/000000000000/dewpoint/state with retain: false
So where does that data go? And how can I capture it and use it in some automations?
Thanks,
schenkl
