Entities not populating - what are correct settings?

[jasunen]

I have go-e Charger running and sending data to my MQTT server.

• In go-e app I have mqtt prefix = /goe/
• MQTT server is using authentication (username, password).

Home assistant has MQTT integration active and it works.

• I can listen /goe/# with Home Assistant MQTT integration and all go-e charger messages are received.

I enable your integration, have correct serial number and put /goe/ as topic. Still entities are not populated and integration is not receiving any data.

What is correct way to setup the integration? There seems to be no clear instructions.

Edit: Charger is "Go-e Charger Gemini"

Could you provide some complete topic examples? Is there a serial number part of the topic? This is important.

No, I am using bare /goe/ as prefix in the e-go APP. In HA MQTT integration I receive following:

Message 172 received on /goe/rssi at 8:55 PM:
-78
QoS: 0 - Retain: false
Message 171 received on /goe/eto at 8:55 PM:
3932605
QoS: 0 - Retain: false
Message 170 received on /goe/tpa at 8:55 PM:
6462.143066
QoS: 0 - Retain: false

When configuring the go-eCharger (MQTT) integration:

Serial number*
123456

Base topic*
/goe/

But all entities remain "unavailable".

I tried to manually create some MQTT sensors in HA configuration.yaml:

mqtt:
  sensor:
    - name: "goe_charger_eto_energy_total"
      state_topic: "/goe/eto"
    - name: "goe_charger_lmo_logic_mode"
      state_topic: "/goe/lmo"

And they work just fine!

HA version 2023.10.0

In the past the serial number was always part of the topic. This is the reason why this integration concatenates the base topic and and serial number gathered from the config flow. Please change the topic to /goe/123456 using the Android app. In this case the component will be able to subscribe to the required topics.

Thanks! That did the trick!

1) In the Android app, MQTT prefix = /goe/123456/ 2) In the integration setup, serial number = 123456 and base topic = /goe
