| 40 | + provided by the broker and automatically set when publishing through the plugin. |

| 52 | + |

| 54 | + (e.g., `["temperature"]`). If left empty, all attributes will be considered. |
| 55 | +- **Query**: Specify the query condition (e.g., `temperature > 30`). |
| 56 | +- **Geospatial Query**: Define the geospatial query parameters. You must privide |
| 57 | + all or none of the following fields: |
| 58 | + - **Georel**: Set the geospatial relationship (e.g., `near;maxDistance:1000`). |
| 59 | + - **Geometry**: Choose the geometry type (e.g., `Point`). |
| 60 | + - **Coordinates**: Enter the coordinates for the geospatial query. |

| 67 | + metadata changes (defaults to `true`). |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +## Issue Template |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +In the **Issue Template** section, you can define how the Redmine issue should |
| 72 | +be created or updated based on the subscription notifications. |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +- **Tracker**: Select the tracker for the issue (e.g., *Work*). |
| 77 | +- **Subject**: Define the subject of the issue. You can embed attribute readings |
| 78 | + using `${variable}`, for example: |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | + ```text |
| 81 | + Temperature Alert in ${Room} |
| 82 | + ``` |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +- **Description**: Provide the description for the issue. You can embed |
| 85 | + attribute readings using `${variable}`, for example: |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | + ```markdown |
| 88 | + The sensor in room ${Room} recorded a temperature of ${temperature}°C. |
| 89 | + - [ ] Open window |
| 90 | + - [ ] Turn on the air conditioning |
| 91 | + ``` |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +- **Notes**: Configure to post an issue note instead of creating a new issue if |
| 94 | + an issue has been created within the threshold. You can embed attribute |
| 95 | + readings using `${variable}`. |
| 96 | +- **Threshold (h)**: Set the threshold to create a new issue in hours. Subsequent |
| 97 | + notifications will be added as notes to the existing issue if the threshold |
| 98 | + has not been exceeded. Set to `0` to always create a new issue. |
| 99 | +- **Issue geometry (GeoJSON)** (optional): Define the issue geometry using |
| 100 | + GeoJSON. You can embed attribute readings using `${variable}`, for example: |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | + ```json |
| 103 | + { |
| 104 | + "type": "Feature", |
| 105 | + "geometry": "${location}" |
| 106 | + } |
| 107 | + ``` |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | + You must use quotes around the `${variable}` to ensure the GeoJSON is valid! |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +- **Attachments (array of)** (optional): List any attachments to be included in |
| 112 | + the issue. You must provide a valid JSON array of objects. Each object must |
| 113 | + have the `url` field set to the URL of the attachment, and optionally the |
| 114 | + `filename` and `description` fields. You may embed attribute readings using |
| 115 | + `${variable}`, for example: |
| 116 | + |
| 117 | + ```json |
| 118 | + [ |
| 119 | + { |
| 120 | + "filename": "image.jpg", |
| 121 | + "description": "Image of the room", |
| 122 | + "url": "${image_url}" |
| 123 | + } |
| 124 | + ] |
| 125 | + ``` |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +- **Issue status**: Set the status of the issue (e.g., *New*). |
| 128 | +- **Priority**: Define the priority of the issue (e.g., *Normal*). |
| 129 | +- **Issue category**: Select the issue category. Categories can be created in |
| 130 | + the project settings. |
| 131 | +- **Version**: Specify the version. Versions can be created in the project settings. |
| 132 | +- **Sent from user**: Select the user from whom the issue is sent. The user must |
| 133 | + have the necessary permissions to create issues in this project. However, **for |
| 134 | + security reasons the user should not have administrator rights**, because its |
| 135 | + API key is stored in the subscription template. |
| 136 | +- **Private**: Check if the issue should be marked *private*. |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | +## Applying Settings |

| 140 | +After configuring all the sections, click the **Create** button to save the new |
| 141 | +subscription template or **Create and add another** to save and create another template. |
