I am trying to integrate a motion sensor from a Control4 via Webhooks. I have an input boolean that is working great that C4 calls on a change of state of the motion detector. Now I want to be able to use that boolean in a binary sensor. I have read several threads on the matter example and I am not getting anywhere. I tried this based heavily on that thread:
Invalid config for [binary_sensor]: required key not provided @ data['platform']. Got None. (See /config/configuration.yaml, line 13)
Which does me little good as the docs show basically nothing when it comes to configuring binary sensors. (No code or examples? So I am stuck. I am sure it’s something easy, but I am not experienced enough to know what.
In other news, I tried to follow what the one mod was saying about not needing a boolean input and after two days of Google, I don’t understand that at all.
Ah, very good. I am slowly realizing this is not setup like old school config.d ideas where things are separated just for readability. I need to learn YAML too seemingly as 2 spaces = good. No or one space = bad in this particular case before - platform. What finally worked for any future Googlers.
