OUTPUTTING THE ATTRIBUTE STATE FROM THE NODE
To output the attribute state rather than the entity state
If State JASONata J: ($entity().attributes.temperature) = 21
State Type string
Output properties
msg.payload J: ($entity().attributes.temperature)
Behaviour:
- The Node displays the state of the string, as the climate entities state is a string, showing heat, cool, dry, etc.
- NOTE: This does not control the output of the node with the JSONata being in in place
- The colour indicator indicates Green for ‘true’ and Red for ‘false’ against the attribute in the JSONata expression.
- The messages are directed to the right output
- msg.payload = the state of the attribute.
