Good evening,
I’m new to Gladys — I plugged in my Zigbee Matter SkyConnect Home Assistant key. However, the link between MQTT and ZIGBEE2MQTT is not working. I don’t really know how to do it. Is the Skyconnet dongle compatible? Thanks in advance for your help
Good evening,
Basically it’s a specific key for Home Assistant so I couldn’t tell you if it is supported directly in Gladys.
How did you install zigbee2mqtt? From the Gladys integration or from outside?
If the key does not appear in Gladys’s list, or if even after selecting it it doesn’t work, you’ll need to modify the zigbee2mqtt configuration files via the command line.
I don’t have this key so I don’t have the commands to give you directly but it is listed as compatible on the zigbee2mqtt website.
You need to check whether this adapter is compatible with Zigbee2mqtt:
I looked on the page, I can’t find the dongle in the list… but that seems very strange to me, I thought the dongle was compatible
Strange — when you search the forums or even Domadoo, it’s marked as compatible everywhere.
In fact, looking into Gladys’ code we correctly handle the Skyconnect in the list:
In that case it should work; we’ll need @jody97230 to tell us more so we can try to help.

Hello,
I’ve been having the same issue with a ZBT-1 key. The link between Gladys and MQTT seems OK but the connection fails with Zigbee2MQTT.
On my configuration, Gladys is installed with docker on a Synology NAS and Zigbee2MQTT has been installed by Gladys.
I’ve taken a look to the logs of gladys-z2m-zigbee2mqtt:

I’ve checked with a previous installation of HomeAssistant and the firmware of the Zigbee dongle is 7.4.x (maybe 7.4.4?) and no update was available.
In the end the container gladys-z2m-zigbee2mqtt seems to crash a lot
Hello and welcome @Kerhank
That’s completely normal because as
