Node “events: state” returns only mag.payload : undefined.
Node is running. In HA, I see when I turn on and off a lamp as an example. I see this in Node-Red as well but I only get “undefined” when the event occurs.
I guess I should at least get a payload that says on or off.
Have tested different apps, different devices but get the same results all the time.
I am new to both HA and Node-Red so I would be very grateful if someone could give me some suggestions on what to do.
Hi,
Firstly let me thank you for making me install the nodered and have a play and learn something new
After a bit of playing I came up with this flow to dump all the sensor states
[{"id":"b65fd414.421408","type":"debug","z":"2f0ea9da.39cca6","name":"","active":true,"tosidebar":true,"console":false,"tostatus":false,"complete":"false","statusVal":"","statusType":"auto","x":840,"y":160,"wires":[]},{"id":"e974961a.f82518","type":"ha-get-entities","z":"2f0ea9da.39cca6","server":"c0171960.d12c88","name":"","rules":[],"output_type":"array","output_empty_results":false,"output_location_type":"msg","output_location":"payload","output_results_count":1,"x":650,"y":160,"wires":[["b65fd414.421408"]]},{"id":"7be43d53.0fb9a4","type":"inject","z":"2f0ea9da.39cca6","name":"","props":[{"p":"payload"}],"repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"topic":"","payload":"sensors","payloadType":"str","x":470,"y":160,"wires":[["e974961a.f82518"]]},{"id":"c0171960.d12c88","type":"server","name":"Home Assistant","legacy":false,"addon":true,"rejectUnauthorizedCerts":true,"ha_boolean":"y|yes|true|on|home|open","connectionDelay":true,"cacheJson":true}]
Hope this helps
As I said I am quite new to this so this is a bit above my paygrade 
Where do I place the code?
Do I need to replace anything in the code?
Get entities only gives me error!
Thanks for trying…
Hi,
No problem, we all need to start somewhere
In terms of the example code flow … copy the code and import it into nodered
All the best !
Good! Now it works
Discovered that the problem is that Tuya has a long response time! Can take up to 3 minutes before on / off changes in HA after I turned on / off a lamp or switch with my phone.
Do you have a solution for that
Thanks for the script…
Good news,
Sorry I too am a new user, I’m just trying to learn more by solving other’s problems 
I would also point you to the Developer tools > states section and you need a firm understanding on how to build configuration.yaml
Maybe put nodered on the sideline and concentrate of HA first ?
Remember Rome wasn’t built in a day so this may take some time but as soon as you’ve learned the concepts you should be able to solve any problem
Good luck !
