Get current value after subscription

Get current value after subscription was created by lmaarsen
Hi,

My IoT hardware is working fine, but I can't find a easy way to get the current value of a paramter after I subscribed to that topic. I need a change of value before I get the value.

I read something about the retained flag.

Any idea?

BG,
Bert

I also need same feature. I have terminal and it sleeps in idle and waking up in every 10 minutes. If the value of topic is changed while terminal is sleeping, I want to get last value when the terminal waked. MQTT standard fixed that problem with retained flag. But I could not find how to activte that flag on module properties.

So do I. I found this feature in local EasyIot.exe, but failed to find one on the cloud. :(

In new Cloud version all topics are retain by default when sending commands. After subscription last value will be received. If you are using ESP8266 to publish value also change code to send state as retain:

myMqtt.publish(topic, valueStr); -> myMqtt.publish(topic, valueStr, 0, 1);
