    @gwp1 I have no doubts that MSR is a great tool for sure when you use more than one platform.
    But sorry I repeat myself... my goal is to only use Home Assistant in the near future and I will migrate step by step from Vera.
    If I can not do all automations in HA I will most certainly seriously consider combining HA with MSR.

    In the meantime I have found the answers on my question myself.

    http luup request to get values of sensor data/variables from Vera.
    Example for a rain sensor:

    http://192.168.1.xxx:3480/data_request?id=variableget&DeviceNum=xx&serviceId=urn:upnp-org:serviceId:RainSensor1&Variable=CurrentRain

    Within Home Assistant I created RESTful sensors to get the data in.

    And it works great.

    @RHCPNG As @toggledbits notes, I've found myself bouncing around a bit. I've settled on what I call Shared Rules - those that impact all things potentially, at a base level. Wx stuff, HVAC stuff, etc.

    I kinda branch out from there. Interior lighting, Outdoor lighting, Presence, etc. Sorta using "topics" and then rulesets under them.

    I'm also linked to our local community center via site-to-site VPN and am using my home MSR instance to control the Hubitat C7 over there for lighting and outdoor fans 🙂

    @akbooer Isn't that a toggle request though, and the next line saying the Target is zero(i.e. off)

    Yes, using both HS3 & HS4. Not an expert but then again it easy to use as it is without tweaking.

    I think I have a real solution for this. As part of the work on ZWaveJSController, I had to make some changes (fairly significant) that I think would stabilize entities when controller initializations are slow as you are seeing here. Most Reactor restarts occur when the hub is already running, but as you've found out, when everything comes up at once, there are nearly infinite ways things can be out of sequence or temporarily missing. Since Z-Wave and its devices can be so much more unpredictable than a running hub, at startup and during normal operation, some changes were needed. The ZWaveJSController testing folks have been using a separate version of Reactor that contains these changes, which I myself have been using for months, and I haven't heard of any issues that could be related to those changes, so I think it's about time I can bless them and put them into the mainline code branch and releases. Perhaps within the next week or so.

    By the way... five minutes to restart Hass? Whiskey tango...

    I’ve built a migrator from datamine format to the format used by MSR in influxdb. If anyone needs it, I could think of releasing it.
    I’ve moved 4 years worth of data this way and it’s working beautifully, since I used to run queries with my own engine and now they’re running inside influxdb, that’s very quick, since it’s built for that purpose.

    @toggledbits it’s not doing http calls, but it’s waiting for a bash command to complete. I’m not sure it this is correlated, but I’ll take a look.

    Speaking solely for myself, if I have data of any type that I wish to preserve/view/review, it's easiest for me just to send it to Google Spreadsheets (via a simple Form link) using MSR, where I can have charts, graphs, tables, whatever suits my needs. But understandably, most users will not want to "roll their own" in this fashion.

    Always nice to have easy-to-setup alternative workflows.

    oh, we should ping @PoltoS in order to understand if that's available to devs as well, or it's intended as a generic feature to consume websockets. websockets are a game changer.
