Ikea device added to zigbee2mqtt but cannot control?

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

Beginner warning: I’ve built a hass.io server on a spare rPi, and seemingly have setup zigbee2mqtt & Mosquitto broker. I’ve ‘believe’ I’ve managed to pair TRADFRI driver for wireless control (30 watt), from what I can see in the logs, but I don’t see any devices within ‘Configuration > Integration’
Any ideas?

Here’s the zigbee2mqtt logs:

Its config file:

    friendly_name: '0x90fd9ffffe1f3680'
    retain: false

mqtt:

  password: MQTTUser
  server: mqtt://homeassistant
  user: MQTTUser
permit_join: true

I’ve seen this other page on manually adding devices but not sure where I’d put the config code. https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/devices/ICPSHC24-30EU-IL-1

Can you check the logs of your Mosquito broker to see if it gets some data there?
Have you configured your HA to listen to the correct mqtt topics?

I’ve followed the guides I could find, how would I configure HA to listen to the correct mqtt topics? Thanks

Mosquitto broker logs:

Maybe you mean have I added the following:-

mqtt:
discovery: true
broker: 192.168.0.23  # Remove if you want to use builtin-in MQTT broker
birth_message:
  topic: 'hass/status'
  payload: 'online'
will_message:
  topic: 'hass/status'
  payload: 'offline'```

My mqtt config in HA is as follows:

    broker: IP_HERE
    discovery: true
    discovery_prefix: 'homeassistant'
    birth_message:
            topic: 'hass/status'
            payload: 'online'
    will_message:
            topic: 'hass/status'
            payload: 'offline'

Try adding the discovery prefix, see if that helps.

Thanks but that didnt help I’m afraid. I must be doing something wrong here, even though i’m following what I believe to be the correct steps. Think I’ll rebuild from scratch and write down the steps, that way hopefuly somebody can see where I’m messing up. :slight_smile:

Ok so I’ve pulled together the steps I’ve taken, plus the config & log files. Would appreciate any advice on how to get this working. Pulling my hair out :slight_smile:

Just started playing with zigbee2mqtt myself a few days ago. Everything looks good from your logs so you should just see under Developer Tools/States a Light and Sensor for that device like mine here

tradfri

Look at the docs here

Turns out the problem was with how i setup the Mosquitto broker.

When following the above instructions I followed the WARNING section about creating explicit ACL definitions. Ignoring this solved my issue. Doh!!! Thanks for all the suggestions.
