Hi all, I am new to UA. I am learning to control the GPIO switch via MQTT. I added some automations. I control the switch “on/off” via MQTT and publish the states of “on/off” via MQTT to server. The problem is that I can only control and publish “OFF” but NO RESPONSE when control and publish “ON”.
I modified my config file as below referring Can I control non MQTT entities with MQTT?
switch:
- platform: rpi_gpio
ports:
17: led
Automation:
- alias: Switch on via MQTT
trigger:
platform: mqtt
topic: home/switch
action:
service: switch.turn_on
entity_id: switch.led
- alias: Switch off via MQTT
trigger:
platform: mqtt
topic: home/switch
action:
service: switch.turn_off
entity_id: switch.led
- alias: Publish Switch on
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: switch.led
state: 'on'
action:
service: mqtt.publish
data:
topic: 'home/switch/state'
payload: 'on'
- alias: Publish Switch off
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: switch.led
state: 'off'
action:
service: mqtt.publish
data:
topic: 'home/switch/state'
payload: 'off'
Please ignore the indent problem. And when I use AWS IoT console to send
{
"switch.led": "on"
}
it has no response. But “off” works. I am wondering where I did wrong??
Thank you!
