Template sensor mqtt

Configuration Frontend
1

Hello everyone. I have an mqtt entity called sensor.movimiento_pasillo this returns a json with several values

{"illuminance":25,"illuminance_lux":25,"linkquality":72,"occupancy":true}

I can’t put together a template to be able to have, for example, occupancy as a new entity.

Could you explain to me how to do it?

Thank you so much

This template sensor config should work. It uses the bool function described in this section:

template:
  - binary_sensor:
      - name: Occupancy Pasillo
        state: "{{ bool(state_attr('sensor.movimiento_pasillo', 'occupancy')) }}"
        device_class: occupancy
  - sensor:
      - name: Illuminance Pasillo
        state: "{{ state_attr('sensor.movimiento_pasillo', 'illuminance_lux') }}"
        unit_of_measurement: 'lx'
        device_class: illuminance
      - name: Link quality Pasillo
        state: "{{ state_attr('sensor.movimiento_pasillo', 'linkquality') }}"

That goes into configuration.yaml — make sure you only have one template: heading.
