How do I receive the message when I subscribe to a topic using "MQTT in Matlab"?

Hello!

Right now I am using the toolbox "MQTT for Matlab". Pubishing messages works fine. But when I'm subscribing to any topic I can't get the content of the message. The "MessageCount" goes up for every message I'm publishing to that topic but Matlab isn't showing me any content at all for my subscription.

The code I used: myMQTT = mqtt('tcp://broker.hivemq.com'); mySub = subscribe(myMQTT,'testtopic')

Hi Sven,

In MATLAB, you can use the read() function to retrieve messages from different MQTT subscriptions. Additionally, when subscribing to a topic, you can assign a callback function that will be triggered whenever a message is received. This allows you to obtain real-time messages from multiple topics and perform actions on them.
