Hi everyone,
I have a simple problem but unfortunately, I am even more so. I have a flow that I want to use to retrieve the set temperature of my climate system, and then set the new temperature of the furnace to 2 degrees less. I have already learned how to retrieve the 'set temperature' and placed it into the flow as "msg.payload".
var setTemp = msg.data.attributes.temperature-2;
msg.payload=setTemp;
return msg;
As you can see above, I have retrieved the set temperature of the climate control and I have subtracted 2 degrees C from this value and placed it into the msg.payload. This part works fine
Then, I know how to use a 'Call Service' node to set the temperature with data like {"temperature":22};
However, I do not know how to insert the msg.payload in place of the number (in this case 22)
Here is the complete flow. Just the last node 'Set Temp' is the problem.
