The example mqtt-hassio.cfg file includes this comment and config:

# include only messages having data sent at least once (only checked for passive or read messages, not for active write)
# when set to 1. If set to >1, then all messages passing the other filter criteria (including active read messages) will
# automatically be set to have a poll priority of at most this value, so these are automatically being polled.
# HA integration: filtering only seen messages to avoid unnecessary "pollution" and auto-poll all matched messages
filter-seen = 5
filter-name = status|temp|yield|count|energy|power|runtime|hours|starts|mode|curve|^load$|^party$|sensor|throughput|util$

If I understand correctly, you can leave the CSV files as just “r,”, and as long as the items match your filters, they’ll be polled anyway. I wasn’t getting the WaterThroughput or CurrentCompressorUtil data until I added the “|throughput|util$” to that variable.

That’s definitely true.
