MQTT option for Sensor Status Telemetry #664

Open tvgriffith opened 2 weeks ago

tvgriffith commented 2 weeks ago

On a reload of Home Assistant, the current status of the sensors are not retained by the MQTT server and become "unknown". Can an option be implemented to provide:-

  1. Telemetry - Regular interval-based publishing of sensor status via MQTT.
  2. On-Demand Requests - A way for the MQTT client to request sensor status updates as needed.

Thanks
