How do I send telemetry data via mqtt to a second component in IoT Central?

I am at a bit of a loss and need a bright idea.

I have created a new device model in IoT Central which has two components and an interface. The interface is also in the default component.

Device Model

If I now send my data via mqtt, I do this via mqtt to the endpoint /devices//messages/events.

mqtt request

This works so far that my telemetry data can be assigned to the properties of the default component and the interface contained there.

raw data

However, I do not manage to assign data to the second component. These are always displayed as _unmodeleddata.

My question: Why is the telemetry data for the second component not matched against the data model?

Thank you for the explanation.

Best Regards Init5

Sending the telemetry data must be done by component with a specific component name. Only a default component doesn't need this name.

The following example shows how can be setup this component name in the topic in the case of direct MQTT protocol:

devices/mydevice/messages/events/$.ct=application%2Fjson&$.ce=utf-8&$.sub=myComponentName
