Trying to get my Homeassistant to get info from Cerbo GX, but i only get data when i start a web GUI session .. The cerbo is running as brooker .. What to do?

The MQTT broker needs to be sent periodic keep-alive messages.

I’m not sure how Home Assistant handles that.

I’m guessing that you bridged the gx to the home assistant? If so…

create an automation to publish a MQTT keep alive every 30 seconds to topic:
venus-home/R/{your id here}/keepalive

Whatever you named your bridge connection you would need to change ‘venus-home’ to match.
