Adding entity to HA using Node-RED MQTT Broker
Hi all, I am trying to set HassAgent up for the first time on Home Assistant, so I can shut down a NUC via HA. I am using Node-RED and running the Aedes MQTT broker node from here, as I run a whole lot of devices through already. I can see HassAgent is connecting to this broker and sending messages on connection.
I've set Hass.Agent up and setup a Command, but I can't get anything into HA itself. Trying to manually add the integration into HA gives the error message "The integration could not be loaded..." and there is no entity showing up under entities for the command.
Is this an issue because I'm running a broker from within Node-RED and not a HA addon? If so, is there any around that?

the sensors/commands should appear in the MQTT integration section
could you please check that?
although the "task failed successfully" message is a little worrying
Do you mean the MQTT integration in HA or is this in the HassAgent app?
If in HA, I don't have an MQTT integration installed, my MQTT broker is run from within Nodered itself.
The MQTT integration in HA - media player and notifications are done via "HASS.Agent" integration an sensors/commands via HA MQTT discovery that needs HA MQTT
