KC868-A16 Tuya - damian87ew - 02-16-2025
Hi everyone,
I’m using the KC868-A16 with Tuya enabled, and I was wondering if there’s a way to see sensor data (e.g., DHT22) directly in the Tuya app. Specifically, I’d like to set up automation where, for example, if the DHT22 sensor detects 15°C, it can trigger another device that’s also connected to Tuya.
Has anyone managed to get this working? Is there a way to make the sensor values visible in Tuya and use them in automations?
Thanks in advance for any tips!

yes, tuya app can use for monitor sensor data and make SCENE mode in tuya app.
1: set sensor pin for DHT22 in KCS v2 webpage.
2: fill tuya license information.
3: use tuya app add your board. Then you can monitor sensor data and make AUTOMATION in tuya app. Just this automation solution need internet.
if you set IFTTT in webpage, that's work locally without internet. such as T<15 THEN relay1 ON/OFF.

Hello,
Im currently trying to intergrate tuya to my KC868-A16, Im following the tutorial video "let ANY ESP32 relay board use Tuya app by ESPHome without ANY coding" and I'm getting an error message when I try to install the yaml file.

the easy way is download KCS v2 firmware, then fill your tuya license information.
here is online guide: https://www.kincony.com/esp32-kcsv2-firmware.html
