Building an automation for a zigbee remote to control a light.
Looked up the Topic and what messages it sends, not the weirdest thing is that the automation will not react to the MQTT topic.
alias: Alex RGWB remote
description: ""
triggers:
- trigger: mqtt
topic: zigbee2mqtt/Alex Afstandsbediening
The rest is just an action to toggle a light. There is however no trace for when i smash the buttons and no colored bar at the trigger to indicate a trigger.
In the MQTT integration i do see the messages when i listen to that topic:
Message 14 received on zigbee2mqtt/Alex Afstandsbediening at 19:53:
{
"action": "on",
"action_group": 16388,
"last_seen": "2025-01-04T18:53:12.493Z",
"linkquality": 255
}
Same goes for MQTT Explorer. And sending any message to that topic from the explorer also does not trigger the automation.
