Original picture was showing OPC-UA tag as data source. This is replace with an SSE event picture.

Added instructions for SSE event identification and clarified event details for MQTT publishing.

Pull request overview

Note

Copilot was unable to run its full agentic suite in this review.

Updates the SSE connector how-to to better explain how to identify SSE events and how event details map to MQTT publishing, including updating the “Add event” screenshot.

Changes:

  • Added a prerequisite note to have SSE event identification ready before deployment.
  • Replaced the “Add event” screenshot and updated accompanying instructions to mention SSE event identification and MQTT topic.

💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.


You need any credentials required to access the SSE source. If the SSE source requires authentication, you need to create a Kubernetes secret that contains the username and password for the SSE source.

Have the event identification ready for each SSE source event you want to receive.

“Event identification” is introduced without defining what exact value the user should gather (for SSE this is commonly the event: name/type and/or the id: field). Consider briefly defining it here (or linking to a section) and remove the trailing whitespace at end of line to avoid lint/build noise in docs pipelines.

Suggested change
Have the event identification ready for each SSE source event you want to receive.
Have the event identification ready for each SSE source event you want to receive, such as the SSE `event:` name or type and, if available, the `id:` field.

The doc switches from the standard :::image directive to a raw HTML <img> pointing to an external github.com/user-attachments URL with fixed dimensions. This is brittle (link longevity), can break offline builds, and fixed width/height can hurt responsiveness. Prefer checking the image into the repo under the local media/ folder and using the :::image directive with source/lightbox.

This sentence is a bit hard to parse and may leave readers unsure which UI fields to populate (e.g., whether “event identification” refers to an event name/type vs an ID). Consider splitting into two short sentences and explicitly naming the UI fields (Data source = SSE event name/type/ID; Destination = MQTT topic) to reduce ambiguity.

Suggested change
Add details for each event like the SSE event identification as data source and MQTT topic as destination to publish to the MQTT broker. Select **Next** to continue.
Enter the details for each event. Set **Data source** to the SSE event identifier and **Destination** to the MQTT topic to publish to the MQTT broker. Select **Next** to continue.
