Greengrass MQTT Bridge component to listen only topics specific for the thing

Question

Hi,
It seems currently we are only allowed to use wildcard (+), or hard coded thing names in MQTT Bridge mqttTopicMapping.

For example I can do as follows and it works;

```
mqttTopicMapping: {
              HelloWorldIotCore: {
                topic: 'clients/+/hello/world',
                source: 'LocalMqtt',
                target: 'IotCore',
              },
              IotCoreToDevice: {
                topic: 'clients/+/iotcore/to/device',
                source: 'IotCore',
                target: 'LocalMqtt',
              }
}
```

This one works too;

```
mqttTopicMapping: {
              HelloWorldIotCore: {
                topic: 'clients/hardcoded_thing_name/hello/world',
                source: 'LocalMqtt',
                target: 'IotCore',
              },
              IotCoreToDevice: {
                topic: 'clients/hardcoded_thing_name/iotcore/to/device',
                source: 'IotCore',
                target: 'LocalMqtt',
              }
}
```

But this one does not work. I want this to work because I want to apply the same deployment to multiple devices (or thing group) and I want each device to receive topic messages specific for itself.

```
mqttTopicMapping: {
              HelloWorldIotCore: {
                topic: 'clients/{iot:thingName}/hello/world',
                source: 'LocalMqtt',
                target: 'IotCore',
              },
              IotCoreToDevice: {
                topic: 'clients/{iot:thingName}/iotcore/to/device',
                source: 'IotCore',
                target: 'LocalMqtt',
              }
}
```

Any solution for this problem?

Thanks

Hi,

I found the problem and posting here in case anybody suffers from the same problem.

In order to be able to {iot:thingName} in component configurations I had to enable interpolateComponentConfiguration on Nucleus configuration like below:

```
configurationUpdate: {
          merge: JSON.stringify({
            interpolateComponentConfiguration: true,
          }),
        },
```
