Android Question cloudmqtt string format

mreyes47 · Nov 16, 2023

Hello,
I'm pushing a mqtt message to cloumqtt which is a mqtt broker with the following.

mqtt.publish2:

mqtt.Publish2("drawers/location", serializator.ConvertObjectToBytes("long string of about 100 characters"), 0, False)

Cloudmqtt receives the data but not in a text format. It currently shows:

Is there a way to send text via mqtt that shows up as text at cloudmqtt?

You are not sending text. You are sending serialized text. cloudmqtt has no way to deserialize it.

If you want to send text:

B4X:

mqtt.Publish2("drawers/location", "long string of about 100 characters".GetBytes("utf8"), 0, False)
