Right direction

From the documentation of the link you sent I see these actions needed:
Configuration:

  1. Need to set “mqttServer” to the HestiaPi IP
  2. Set “topic” to one or (if supported) many topics published by HestiaPi. Find the topics list here
  3. Leave HestiaPi authentication params as is because the MagicMirror module says it does not support authenticated messages.

For troubleshooting use your laptop and do that:
Confirm by subscribing from another laptop to all (#) MQTT IDs and listen for published messages while you play with your HestiaPi:

mosquitto_sub -h [HESTIA_PI_IP] -d -t hestia/#
