From several days I searched for this problem:
I want to do a connected device (IoT) using Watson IoT Platform and ESP32 (or similar). This device have some relays on board.
On Watson dashboard I created the device type, the physical/logical interface, I connected the ESP with the platform.
I created a custom action on the dashboard that has a param to identify the relay that I want to switch (switch2) and also a simple custom action (switch) without param.
The problem is that if I generate the action without the param (switch) I see the callback print, if I generate the action with a param (switch2) nothing happens. I tried also to use the built-in Watson action "firmware update/download", if I use firmware download (that want some params such as uri, version, etc.) nothing happens, if I use firmware update (that don't want params), I see the callback of subscription.
Here you can see the code arduino like for the ESP
