Hi,
I have been using HA for a while, I have added a couple of new sensors that send their values via MQTT. I have an existing set of sensors sending via the same server, working perfectly.
The new sensors will not display a value on the dashboard. I have confirmed that they are reaching the MQTT server and available. Could someone see if they can see something obvious…
Example JSON payload sent to MQTT
{"water-temp":27.50,"Humidity":95.00,"air-temp":26.10,"count":6120}
Extract from my config: Note the top two are working, bottom 3 are not
sensor:
# Weather prediction
- platform: yr
- platform: mqtt
name: "Temperature"
state_topic: "office/sensor1"
unit_of_measurement: 'c'
value_template: "{{ value_json.temperature }}"
- platform: mqtt
name: "fishtemp"
state_topic: "sensor/fishtank"
unit_of_measurement: 'c'
value_template: "{{ value_json.temperature }}"
- platform: mqtt
name: "waterlevel"
state_topic: "sensor/fishtank"
value_template: "{{ value_json.waterlevel }}"
- platform: mqtt
name: "biopodwatertemp"
state_topic: "biopod/readings"
unit_of_measurement: 'c'
value_template: "{{ value_json.water-temp }}"
- platform: mqtt
name: "biopodhumdity"
state_topic: "biopod/readings"
unit_of_measurement: '%'
value_template: "{{ value_json.Humidty }}"
- platform: mqtt
name: "biopodairtemp"
state_topic: "biopod/readings"
unit_of_measurement: 'c'
value_template: "{{ value_json.air-temp }}"
Screenshot of the dashboard & Config (I had to combine as new users can only send one image)
Only value in the Logs
