Domoticz

Hi,

I have a device which needs to be polled via MQTT to get the latest status.

Is there a way to trigger an event when the Android app opens, that way I run a script to poll the device when needed.

I can't find an event in any documentation that would achieve this?

If the tasker plugin can send a customEvent via JSON or MQTT on opening the app, it should be doable.

Good plan, thanks!

I have a virtual push button switch to allow me to manually trigger the commends I need so I have just set tasker to use the plugin to press that when the Domoticz app opens.
