Hello!
I would like to control the Ulanzi (awtrix light) with Node Red via MQTT.
Unfortunately I haven't done that yet.
Can anyone help me how to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Do you have an MQTT broker?
According to [https://blueforcer.github.io/awtrix-light/#/](https://blueforcer.github.io/awtrix-light/#/)
> Awtrix Light is a custom firmware for the [Ulanzi Smart Pixel clock](https://www.ulanzi.com/products/ulanzi-pixel-smart-clock-2882?ref=28e02dxl) (Ref link). It meant to be a companion for your smarthome like HomeAssistant, IOBroker, NodeRed and so on.
And [https://blueforcer.github.io/awtrix-light/#/api](https://blueforcer.github.io/awtrix-light/#/api)
> This API documentation covers various functionalities such as retrieving device statistics, screen mirroring, notifications, customapps, sound playing, and mood lighting. You can interact with these features via both MQTT and HTTP protocols.
Maybe share with us what you have tried?
