"room", "rooms", "function", "functions" empty for many maintenance events

[arrlee]

I am using an rpc-event node to capture all events from my CCU3 in order to save it to an influxdb. However, some messages come with empty "room", "rooms", "function", "functions". It seems that this happens only for events with channelType "MAINTENANCE", notably for datapoints "*UNREACH", "DUTY_CYCLE", "UPDATE_PENDING" etc.

Following my setup (I am aware that this is not the most recent one, however, I cannot update for time beeing):

most likely channel 0 (maintenance) is just not assigned to a room/function. IIRC the ccu webui doesn't allow that.

Just took a look, indeed the ccu webui doesn't allow assignments of channel 0 to a room/function. Nevertheless it could be done via regascript or some external tooling.
