Hi, I am fairly new to Node Red but have managed to configure a number of Shelly Gen1 Devices to control lighting. I now have a Gen2 device and the MQTT structure is entirly different and I am a bit stuck. I have my input MQTT subscribed to the topic shellyplus1-a8032abd78a0/events/rpc which seems …

this is how I receive MQTT from a shelly 4 pro pm [{"id":"18f1c280a57f5b40","type":"mqtt in","z":"9120cee1.edcfb","name":"","topic":"shellypro4pm-94b97ec035e8/status/switch:0","qos":"0","datatype":"auto","broker":"36a1d46c.15334c","nl":false,"rap":true,"rh":0,"x":270,"y":420,"wires":[["bcfe805d6c32…

input:0 is already ture/false according to you debug output.

Isn't it the 'output' value that is required?

There is no "output" in the mqtt payload Just a matter of moving input:0.state to msg.payload.

It's not shown in the posts above, but as far as I can recall reading a while ago, there should be - output: true that shows the state of the relay.

@juntiedt Could you post the MQTT output message from your Shelly please, so we can see the expected format.

{"id": 3, "source": "HTTP", "output": false, "apower": 0.000, "voltage": 232.168,"aenergy": {"total":47.131,"by_minute":[0.000,0.000,0.000],"minute_ts":1635763499},"temperature":{"tC":null, "tF":null}} EDIT by moderator (for easier reading...) { "id":3, "source":"HTTP", "output":false, …

this is the MQTT output of switch 3 of a shelly 4pro pm. it gives you: on off status apower in Watt voltage in Volt energy used and internal temp of the switch (in this case switch 3)
