Mqtt getting devices

The strange part is if I removed roomSettings block it still shows the same output. Any configurations I am missing ?

Hi @Rahulsharma0810 ,

what exactly is the issue here? I can see that devices are detected in MQTT. Are you concerned about the empty console info output?

[Rahulsharma0810]

I am not able to get the accessories as sensors in homebridge.

magically after some time it magically started working.

However there are no Accessories in the homebridge tab, also when I tried to pair the homekit with the homebridge, the occupancy sensor reported

I´ve got the exact same issue as you. Did you restart home bridge to get it to work or did you let homebridge run for some time and then it started to magically work?

[caarlos0]

for me it was the room name in the espresense config and the homebridge-espresense plugin config had a typo in it

make sure both configs have the same room name

once I fixed that, it started working
