De app ziet er veel belovende uit.
Nu heb ik een apikey aangemaakt en krijg ook een notificatie.
Echter zit er geen plaatje bij maar alleen een url in de notificatie.
I reply in English, since this is an English topic. To receive the image, you need an action card from a messaging service that supports image via url. Like Telegram in the example below. Currently, I am still working on an image tag.

Do you happen to have an example of how I can do this.
I have the telegram app, but I don’t understand how I get the url in the telegram app from your app. Will this become a variable?
use the token: Location Image URL
I have created the flow below.
However, I only receive a notification from Homey with a URL in it?
Its allreay working.
Saving the flow was the sollution

That is the best part of a flow. 
Small tip. Create a text variable and put your apikey in here.
As I did in also in my flow example.
Ths for the tip.
Is it normal that i get and the telegram app notification and a notification from Homey it self?
Somewhere you have a double flow
Is the image only working with Telegram? I don’t get the right tags’s when I use Homey push message or Signal message
No with all messenger service that support image url. Homey push only support image tags.
Hi,
First of all thank you for this app.
Some new features look awsome and would like to see it. Unfortunately I don’t seem to be able to find version 1.0.9.
I tried the test url, but only find version 1.0.8.
What did i miss?
Cheers,
Eric
Sorry for the confusion. Latest version is 1.0.8.

I have a question, is it possible to make such a flow that when you leave the house in a given time interval, the way to work is checked and the time is given, e.g. in the notification?
