2021.7 | Configurable | mqtt |
The mqtt Select platform allows you to integrate devices that might expose configuration options through MQTT into Home Assistant as a Select. Every time a message under the topic in the configuration is received, the select entity will be updated in Home Assistant and vice-versa, keeping the device and Home Assistant in sync.
Configuration
To enable MQTT Select in your installation, add the following to your {% term "configuration.yaml" %} file:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
mqtt:
- select:
command_topic: topic
name: "Test Select"
options:
- "Option 1"
- "Option 2"
{% configuration %}

If set to latest, the last payload_available or payload_not_available received on any configured availability topic controls the availability.
