This generic sensor implementation uses the MQTT message payload as the sensor value.

Otherwise, the initial state will be undefined. sensor: platform: mqtt name: "MQTT Sensor" state_topic: "home/bedroom/temperature" qos: 0 unit_of_measurement: "ÂșC" Variables: name *Optional The name of the sensor. Default is 'MQTT Sensor'. state_topic *Required The MQTT topic subscribed to receive sensor values. qos *Optional The maximum QoS level of the state topic.
