Passing temperature values FROM Node-Red TO Home Assistant

I have an Arduino with some temperature sensors, gathering temp data in NR. I would like to see those values in HA using Lovelace vs. NR Dashboards. I’m trying to send the data over MQTT but I’m just getting the topic and no payload.

Any suggestions or examples that could help steer me in the right direction?

Figure this out because MQTT is the way to go.

A. Make sure you’re not using a /topic/path vs topic/path. That leading / makes it a whole different topic.

B. Try subscribing to # to troubleshoot and you’ll see the topic and where the payloads are going.

I am subscribing to the same topic in NR as I’m posting to, and the data looks correct.
