Get all entity values from one single device

Third party integrations Node-RED
1

Hello community,

i am happy to join this community. Let me know if I miss any rules of conduct!
But now my question:

I have connected a Aqara motion sensor via zigbe2mqtt to Homeassistant. I am using the “Event: State” node in NodeRed to react on state changes to turn on the light based on detected motion. Now i want to increase or decrease the light level based on the detected lux level of the motion sensor.

Here is a simple example of my actual setup (import it in node red):

The problem is that I can only read the value of the motion entity (binary_sensor.ankleidezimmer_bewegungssensor_occupancy).

How can I get all (or a specific) entity values from one single device in one payload?

Here is my actual workaround for this:

I am using a node red function and this code to get the value of single entity values:

const lux = global.get('homeassistant.homeAssistant.states["sensor.ankleidezimmer_bewegungssensor_illuminance_lux"].state');

But anyway I still have the same question:
Is there an easy way to get all devices entities in one payload if there is a state change from one of this entities?
