This post is in 3rd party integrations and the OP is re esphome and NodeRed so I think thats fairly appropriate. But its long holiday weekend in the states. People are busy. I get sometimes it is hard to know the ‘best’ place to post but typically I think most would agree ALL of the places isnt the best place.
