Yes
You have changed to rule yours device IDs

Use in CLI command
smartthings rules:create -j -l location_id -i RulesAPI_xxxx.json -t token

location_id = your location ID
RulesAPI_xxxx.json = your Rules API rule file name

I think that when you are making first rule you also need auth token
-t, --token= the auth token to use

“MQTT Temperature” is wrong
You have to use “capability”: “partyvoice23922.vtempset”

You have changed my example. Change only device IDs. Keep everything else.
