The `mqtt` Number platform allows you to integrate devices that might expose configuration options through MQTT into Home Assistant as a Number. Every time a message under the `topic` in the configuration is received, the number entity will be updated in Home Assistant and vice-versa, keeping the device and Home Assistant in-sync.
|
||
|
||
## Configuration
|
||
|
||
<a id='new_format'></a>
|
||
|
||
To enable MQTT Number in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
||
mqtt:
|
||
number:
|
||
- command_topic: my-device/threshold
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
