Is it possible to create a tag that contains a reference to what triggered an advanced flow? I am trying to make a flow for my washer and dryer when they end their cycles. They’re practically the same and I could copy paste, but really the only difference is in the notification it sends at the end. I figured if i could make a tag right after the device triggered, I could include that in the resulting notification.

Or am i thinking about this wrong? Still quite new to how Homey does its thing so i am totally open to it being me just thinking about things the wrong way.

The Advanced Triggers app is what has made it work for me!
