title: "MQTT Update"
description: "Instructions on how to interact with a device exposing an Update entity through MQTT from within Home Assistant."
ha_category:
- Update
ha_release: "2021.11"
ha_iot_class: Configurable
ha_domain: mqtt
---
The `mqtt` Update platform allows you to integrate devices that might expose firmware/software installed and the latest versions through MQTT into Home Assistant as an Update entity. Every time a message under the `topic` in the configuration is received, the entity will be updated in Home Assistant.
## Configuration
To enable MQTT Update in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
mqtt:
select:
- state_topic: topic-installed
latest_version_topic: topic-latest
```
{% configuration %}
availability:
description: A list of MQTT topics subscribed to receive availability (online/offline) updates. Must not be used together with `availability_topic`.
required: false
type: list
keys:
payload_available:
description: The payload that represents the available state.
required: false
type: string
default: online
payload_not_available:
description: The payload that represents the unavailable state.
required: false
type: string
default: offline
topic:
description: An MQTT topic subscribed to receive availability (online/offline) updates.
required: true
type: string
value_template:
description: "Defines a [template](/docs/configuration/templating/#using-templates-with-the-mqtt-integration) to extract device's availability from the `topic`. To determine the devices's availability result of this template will be compared to `payload_available` and `payload_not_available`."
required: false
type: template
availability_topic:
description: The MQTT topic subscribed to receive availability (online/offline) updates. Must not be used together with `availability`.
required: false
type: string
availability_mode:
description: When `availability` is configured, this controls the conditions needed to set the entity to `available`. Valid entries are `all`, `any`, and `latest`. If set to `all`, `payload_available` must be received on all configured availability topics before the entity is marked as online. If set to `any`, `payload_available` must be received on at least one configured availability topic before the entity is marked as online. If set to `latest`, the last `payload_available` or `payload_not_available` received on any configured availability topic controls the availability.
required: false
type: string
default: latest
availability_template:
description: "Defines a [template](/docs/configuration/templating/#using-templates-with-the-mqtt-integration) to extract device's availability from the `availability_topic`.
