Good evening to all of you and many thanks to anybody willing to help me. As many of us seeking help I’m very new to this amazing world, I just got through with the basics and have some functionality working (sonoffs and tracking devices mainly). Now I would like to test the GPSLogger functionality and so far as I understand I have to activate the corresponding integration, but o my surprise the “add button” in the configuration -> integrations page is not reacting properly, i.e. nothing happens (the integrations list doesn’t pop up). Moreover I found out that adding the MQTT integration after having deleted it cannot discover any device. In fact I had to revert to a snapshot which I had to be able to handle the devices I already had. There seems to be something wrong with the integrations capability but I’m not able to understand what since there is nothing in the logs (debug activated) which can point me in any direction. Again thanks in advance for any help. (Raspberry pi4, Buster OS, docker)
Are you sure you aren’t blocking javascript on the page? Check your browser console.
thank you for your fast response, meanwhile I tried to access my server from chromium (I normally use firefox under kubuntu) and everything worked fine. I have to follow your suggestion and check the browser console. Now that we are at it, how do I verify the integration is working as expected? What and where do I see the followed track? On the map corresponding at the person who is using the app? Thank you again
Assuming you have set up the app on your device, you look in the Developer tools > States on HA, and you should see your device_tracker device with your GPS coordinates on it.
If the device is at home, it won’t show up on the map. If the device is not at home, it will show up on the map.
does it show only the position on the map or even the track walked/run?
It only shows the position.
ok thank you. Do you happen to know if the addon traccar is able to show the track as well on the map?
I don’t think any of the device trackers will show a track on the map. This isn’t something that is implemented into HA at this time.
okay, thank you for your precious help.
