How to connect the node red dashboard to the MTQQ dashboard app ?

Im working on an IIOT automation project with rapsberry pi
I cant seem to understand how to connect the node red dashboard to the MTQQ dashboard app

Hi @Jd3n Create and deploy Node-Red flow using mqtt palette/node which comes by default in node-red dashboard and then connect with your choice of MQTT dashboard App using the correct MQTT server and port number. I'm not sure exactly which MQTT dashboard App you're using as there are so many in the App Store. I believe you've installed running the node-red service on RPi and trying to send sensor data to the MQTT Dashboard App. Let me know more details about what you've done so far.

the app name is litreally mtqq dashboard

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:14 PM

so I have connected 8 relays to rapsberry pi model 3 B+ And built a dashboard using the "dashboard" mod

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:15 PM

I got the ui and i am able to make it work perfectly
I could control the relays with no problem

but....

The thing Tht I cant do is control the Node red Ui from another device
I dont understand HOw I could control the ui I made using node RED from another other device

Hey @Jd3n to control GPIO Pins of RPi using Node-RED with UI running on other device. You need to install ui widgets node-red-contrib-ui in node-red dashboard and use them in your node flow. I have already made a video long back to show you step by step https://youtu.be/BtNt4-v8hQw

Control GPIO Pins of Raspberry Pi4 using Node-Red

Lets learn how to control GPIO Pins of Raspberry Pi4 using Node-Red.
We'll first use raspberry pi specific node palates. And later on, we'll install ui widgets like button, gauge etc. This will let us design very sophisticated node-red dashboard to control GPIO Pins of Raspberry Pi4 from Browser.

This example demonstrate controlling an LED conn...

I tried remote red but tht didnt work

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:17 PM

Imma look at this

Umesh LokhandeAPP•2/23/24, 3:17 PM

Sure, i already done it. So feel free to ask specific question so I'll guide you further

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:17 PM

bruv you are such a life saver

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:17 PM

Imma try this in the morning and will come back to you if I get any errors

Umesh LokhandeAPP•2/23/24, 3:18 PM

Sure, take your time. I'll be around. Have a fun with Node-RED

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:18 PM

appreciate it fr

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:26 PM

So Ive watched tht video youve sent

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:26 PM

and you told me to download ibm watson cloud service as node red module

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:27 PM

but the thing is the imb watson is not free its aksing for money

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:27 PM

so do you know any other cloud plantforms we could use to access node red ui anywhere from the wrld

Umesh LokhandeAPP•2/23/24, 3:27 PM

To create ui you don't need IBM Watson. I have just shown it as an example. You only have to install node-red-contrib-ui from Palette Manager. As shown in the video. To control RPi from other device can also be done locally as shown in the video. But you can pretty much use any other free cloud service

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:28 PM

broda I know we cant build ui using ibm watson
and Im asking you if you know any videos for

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:28 PM

integrating cloud to node red

Jd3nAPP•2/23/24, 3:28 PM

I cant find ntg

Umesh LokhandeAPP•2/23/24, 3:29 PM

Okay, I don't have a specific video to suggest at this moment but consider using ThingSpeak CloudThingSpeak Cloud or just a free MQTT Server like test.mosquitto.orgtest.mosquitto.org (instead of a cloud platform). Maybe I'll considering making such video in future.
