HI
using the https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/airvisual/ integration, there seems to be no value for the main pollutant at all? All I get is a name, symbol, unit_of_measurement, the lat/long and the quality.
The value for the main_pollutant this is based on, which seems to be the main value for this sensors… isn’t provided:
this is the station near , showing the 6 which is what should be in the sensor too.
anyone else see this? do we have a bug?

“When configured, the platform will create three sensors for each configured air quality standard”
Where are your other 2 sensors?
none of these content the value for main pollutant PM2.5
I’ve added the Chinese method also:
same for Pm10

bug when it’s not a bug pisses off developers
yeah, never sure what to do,
feature requests that don’t get any attention of the dev’s do comparable things to the users.
but, I’ll play nice.

Just make an issue and say “i’d like this to get added” if you want more visibility from the devs.
made the feature request…
continuing from No state/value for Air-visual integration main sensor?
please add the sensor values for main_pollutant in the airvisual integration.
the sensors made:
[02]
misses the most important value for the main-pollutant, on which the level and AQI are based.
example from my local station:
[16]
note the ‘6’ before µg/m³
more-info of 2.5
[55]
but still will do as you suggest, referencing both my FR and community post.
thanks for the hint.
