# Details for Home Assistant beginners
|
||
|
|
If you can reach your Home Assistant at [http://homeassistant.local:8123](http://homeassistant.local:8123) the links below should work.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Mosquitto
|
||
|
|
Head over to Supervisor -> Add-on Store and search for `mosquitto broker`.
|
||
|
|
Install it and then start [mosquito addon link](http://homeassistant.local:8123/hassio/addon/core_mosquitto/info)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Add api user for Mosquito
|
||
|
|
Add a Home Assistant user for the Plejd addon to be able to connect to Mosquito [Configuration -> Users](http://homeassistant.local:8123/config/users)
|
||
|
|
Call the user e.g. `mqtt-api-user`, set a password and save
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Plejd
|
||
|
|
Follow the `Easy Installation` in [README.MD](plejd/README.md)
|
||
|
|
And `Configuration Parameters` on the same page.
|
||
|
|
The only parameters needing a value are
|
||
|
|
* site
|
||
|
|
* username
|
||
|
|
* password
|
||
|
|
* mqttUsername e.g. `mqtt-api-user`
|
||
|
|
* mqttPassword
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now you can start the Plejd add-on
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Where are the lights?
|
||
|
|
Head over to [Configuration -> Integrations](http://homeassistant.local:8123/config/integrations) and click Configure on MQTT
|
||
|
|
After this step a new `Mosquito broker` should appear on the same page. If everything was setup correctly. It will list your lights under
|
||
|
|
`1 entity`/`n entities`
|
