I thought about this right after I posted this one here… It’s basically the local tuya integration conflicting with this one. I disabled the integration, rebooted HA and now the node is connected…
So I made a test. I can disable 1 device at the time but the Node-Red server must run on another machine in order for the connection to work. So I basically have to create the configuration on the test server and then export it. Which is fine, but I actually don’t know how to create a simple entity in HA from Node Red
I tried the entity node in Node Red but I’m not getting all info… any good guide showing step by step how to do it? What I need is basically get an entity in HA with all information about electric usage (watt,volt, ampere and Kwh). The current Tuya integration doesn’t show the daily usage and that’s what I need which is supposed to be visible in Node-red.
In the entity node press the + sign in the attributes to add. Like you will need device_class in the home assistant part, then add state_classmeasurement in the attributes.
You can also add values depending on their message position in the incoming message.
Thanks for the reply, I’ll try it. In the meantime I managed to get the info I wanted from an existing attribute by using another integration I was not aware of
