When uploading location data via MQTT TagoTIP I get the following out on Inspector:

_**13:30:40: [POST] HTTP Request: ######**_

_ **13:30:40:Raw payload:** _

_**[{ “variable”: “location”, “value”: “cad-dnt1-26212” }, { “variable”: “location”, “value”: { “lat”: 48.831004, “lng”: 12.988001 } }]**_

_**[{ “variable”: “location”, “value”: “cad-dnt1-26212” }, { “variable”: “location”, “value”: { “lat”: 48.831004, “lng”: 12.988001 } }]**_

_**13:30:40: Connection refused, invalid payload: “[object Object]”**_

The payload send out via NodeRED is structured like this:

_**[location=cad-dnt1-26212;location@=48.831004,12.988001]**_

Even simplier examples do not work =\> Msg: invalid payload

_**[location@=48.831004,12.988001]**_

My Question. Has anyone experience in transfering location data via TagoTIP to a device in [tago.io](http://tago.io)?

Regards

Peter

Hi Peter,

Thank you for pointing that out! It’s now possible to also add location data to any variable. You can check out how to do that [here](https://docs.tago.io/docs/tagotip/transports/mqtt#suffixes) in the suffixes section.
