I finally found a way to get the on/off status based on the "apower" property of the notifications:

            "topics": {
                "getOnline": "shellyplus1pm-XXXXXXXXXXXX/online",
                "getOn": {
                    "topic": "shellyplus1pm-XXXXXXXXXXXX/events/rpc",
                    "apply": "if(message.includes('apower')) { return JSON.parse(message).params['switch:0'].apower==0 ? 'false' : 'true'; }"
},
                "setOn": {
                    "topic": "shellyplus1pm-XXXXXXXXXXXX/rpc",
                    "apply": "return JSON.stringify({id:1, src:'shellyplus1pm-XXXXXXXXXXXX', method:'Switch.Toggle', params:{id:0}})"
}
},
            "onlineValue": "true",
            "onValue": "true",

            "offValue": "off",

Gen2 device API is really a step back compared to v1!
Look at how easy it was with API v1 (below) compared to API v2 (above):

            "topics": {
                "getOnline": "shellies/shelly1-XXXXXXXXXXXX/online",
                "getOn": "shellies/shelly1-XXXXXXXXXXXX/relay/0",
                "setOn": "shellies/shelly1-XXXXXXXXXXXX/relay/0/command"
},
            "onlineValue": "true",
            "onValue": "on",
            "offValue": "off",

As indicated in this article, using a single topic for all messages is an anti pattern of MQTT.

Hello,

I cannot connect to my Shelly Plus 1PM via the iOS App (v2.0.2).

It indicates "Device is rebooting" although it is up & running.

I can connect to the device in HTTP without any problem!

The device is operating well!

I deleted and reinstalled the device several times, without success.

Any idea?

Hi again,

If not, how can I get the status of the switch with a single request?

In other words, the equivalent of gen1 API: shellies/<model>-<deviceid>/relay/0

Tx,

Hi,

Isn't it possible to switch the Shelly Plus 1PM back to the old multiple-topics MQTT format?

I'm using HomeBridge with the mqttthing plugin and it's hard to manipulate JSON.

Thanks,

pHiL
