@fischi87 Hi and sorry. I use node red instead of iobroker and do not have a glue of it.
You will need a MQTT integration in iobroker, a MQTT broker and the MQTT module in the mirror.
If the device changes state iobroker gets notice of it and sends a message to a MQTT topic.
You can subscribe to this topic with the MQTT module in the mirror and initiate a notification with it.
The alert module can display the message in the notification in the result.

@fischi87 Sorry, do not know where I read iobroker but Home Assistant has a MQTT integration, too.

@fischi87 do you mean send notification? for send trigger?

@wishmaster270

iobroker have also a MQTT instance. so maybe I will give it a try. but the readme looks difficult :-)

like I wrote I want see a alert in my mirror that shows me the Washer finished washing. the question is how I can trigger the alert or maybe a notification, is also a idea. when I think about. how can I do it, do u have a idea?

@fischi87 @wishmaster270 gave you the answer with his MQTTBridge module

hears the mqtt message and can send a notification to the alert module.

you configure both

hello again, I connected now this modul with my broker but how can I send a notification to the alert model? this I don’t understand right now. maybe u or someone else can help me in this topic please?

@fischi87 yeh it’s a little bit of thinking, as it is two part

starting here

define the mqtt topic and an arbitrary ‘command’ word to execute when the topic is heard (mqttHook)
define the ‘command’ that has the notification and the payload (mqttNotiCommands)

and from the alert module doc, start here

first of all thank u for ur time.
i dont understand where i have to write down the sendnotification. i mean i can see in my broker the examples from the mqtt module but how it works now. my understanding is to write something in the config to trigger the alarm.

for example i use the example from the brige modul how can i use this exemple to trigger a alert? i hope u can understand me.

thanks
