Triggering a zigbee device

Ok - i deleted everything and started over..

I think i have a problem with my path - as I am able to read current state and send a payload, however the device is not opening/closing..

This is the log snippet - when the device is toggled in indigo:

Code: Select all

   MQTT Shims Debug                Main Water Valve: publish_topic: zigbee2mqtt/UTILITY_DEVICES/MAIN_WATER_SHUTOFF/ -> {"state":"ON"}
   MQTT Connector Debug            Zigbee2MQTT v3: publishMessageAction zigbee2mqtt/UTILITY_DEVICES/MAIN_WATER_SHUTOFF/: {"state":"ON"}, 0, False
   MQTT Connector Debug            Zigbee2MQTT v3: Message published: 47
   MQTT Shims Debug                Main Water Valve: getDeviceStateList returning: States : (list)
   MQTT Connector Debug            Main Water Valve: deviceUpdated: doExcludes = False, listedDevice = False
   MQTT Connector Debug            Main Water Valve: deviceUpdated: id = 504655790, devList = published_devices : (list)


Here is what I see in MQTT Explorer:


notice the line "={"state":"ON"} is what is coming from Indligo - clearly in the wrong spot.. It looks like i'm not "sticking" the state in the right place...?

here is my device setup
the full action topic path is clipped in the screenshot, here it is:

Code: Select all

zigbee2mqtt/UTILITY_DEVICES/MAIN_WATER_SHUTOFF/

Any ideas on what i'm doing wrong?

The payload looks fine, if it's supposed to be JSON. Get rid of the trailing slash on the topic.

ftr, i tried with and without trailing slash.. same

I did finally figure it out- via the zigbee2MQTT docs! I needed to add "set" to the end of the URL:

Code: Select all

zigbee2mqtt/UTILITY_DEVICES/MAIN_WATER_SHUTOFF/set

thanks for this AWESOME set of plugins and assistance!

actually.... spoke too soon - i can control it - but cannot seem to get current state - any ideas?

I'm not getting the current state back - here is what i have.. I tried with and without the "/get" on the end:

zigbee2mqtt/UTILITY_DEVICES/MAIN_WATER_SHUTOFF/get

The state updates are getting sent by zigbee2mqtt, it's these lines:

Code: Select all

Info 2022-11-18 11:02:09MQTT publish: topic 'zigbee2mqtt/UTILITY_DEVICES/MAIN_WATER_SHUTOFF', payload '{"linkquality":99,"state":"ON"}'

Info 2022-11-18 11:02:09MQTT publish: topic 'zigbee2mqtt/UTILITY_DEVICES/MAIN_WATER_SHUTOFF/linkquality', payload '99'

You need a trigger for the `zigbee2mqtt/UTILITY_DEVICES/MAIN_WATER_SHUTOFF` topic so it sends that message to the Shim. And you need to specify the "On value" in the Shim as "ON".
