MQTT item setup

[George_Whitehouse (GW)]

Hi there

Could someone point me in the right direction.
I have set up Zigbee2MQTT and the messages are going to the broker. I am having difficulty separating the contact data from the payload.
I can see the data when I create a text channel but can not seem to separate out the contact component of the data.

I guess you are missing an entry in field „incoming value transformation“ which you will see if you activate „Show advanced“ checkbox.

Here you might add something like

JSONPATH:$.contact

Make sure you have installed the jsonpath transformation binding.

Cheers
