- DHT22 leg 1 - VCC
- DHT22 leg 2 - D1/GPIO5 - Resistor 4.7K Ohms - GND
- DHT22 leg 4 - GND
- D0/GPIO16 - RST (wake-up purpose)
Configuration (HA) :
sensor 1:
platform: mqtt
state_topic: 'office/sensor1'
name: 'Temperature'
unit_of_measurement: 'C'
value_template: '{{ value_json.temperature }}'

sensor 2:
platform: mqtt
state_topic: 'office/sensor1'
name: 'Humidity'
unit_of_measurement: '%'
value_template: '{{ value_json.humidity }}'
