I finally received and installed my blue series over the weekend and things are running smoothly. It is now time to configure some automations based on taps.
However, I am missing the the tap actions (down_single, etc) in Home-Assistant from zigbee2mqtt. I see the topic and value under zigbee2mqtt in MQTT but there seems to be missing the required home-assistant discovery topic to have it displayed in Home-Assistant.
I already opened an issue here but I am wondering if I am the only one with this issue.
Are you talking about these? They work fine for me with Z2M ( bathroom fan switch is a blue 2-1). If I remember correctly, I had to send them once from the switch before they showed up in HA.
I also do not have the action entity. There’s a blueprint out there that requires it. This is something commonly seen on Ikea buttons, and from what I gather from the blueprint thread there are some that are getting this with the 2-1 as well.
That said, as mentioned above, just select device as trigger and the actions show up under the triggers section. Add one for every scene you want to trigger, edit the ID, then under actions use Choose and “triggered by” and put your action. It’s just as easy as a blueprint.
I’m having the same issue. No actions show in the trigger section for the blue switch. I get nothing in events when I push the config button either, Tried reconfigure, resetting. This is on two different switches. Button delay is set to 300ms
Have you tried going in and setting up an automation like above? Do you see any triggers there in the drop down after selecting the device as the trigger for the automation?
No button based actions show. It’s just a bunch of mode change which aren’t very helpful. I’m running 2.08 firmware on the switches. Home assistant is on the latest version. Using Zigbeetomqtt.
Interesting. There is another thread on here somewhere where someone else had this issue. It was something with Z2M not sending the events. They ended up running through all of the possible actions. Single click up, double click up, triple click up, etc… After cycling through them all they appeared in HA. Bit of a pain but should only take a couple minutes to do. Maybe give that one a try?
When I first started working with the blues I was using Node Red. I installed the zigbee2mqtt pallet, connected to the z2m server and ran that into a debug node. Everything z2m was sending out got dumped into that debug node. This would let you check if z2m is sending it and HA is just not picking it up.
Also running into this problem as of this week. The actions showed up yesterday for some reason, but now they’re gone again. Curious if anyone has any other ideas. I’ve tried restarting things, checking for updates, a reset, etc. to no avail.
