Thanks Arie! no rush, take your time.
I tried it and the card texts is much better, easier to understand âReturn to â.
You are right, there was a bug.
Itâs resolved in the current Live version: 1.5.2.
This flow works as expected.

Tested it and the sequential part works good, each trigger is handled after each other.
But I see a strange thing with the return-card.
See picture for flow.
The two first calls returns the value, but the third and last doesnât return any value.

Sorry, not using Device Capabilities yet.
Well start, itâs the best way for me to deliver good support, because you can send me your flows.
Straigns think here is, the Returned Test3 should give an Timeout error: You are surpasing the 30 seconds timeout for an actioncard to finish.
The Start TriggerTest (Test3) should timeout aftter 30 seconds.
What is this 30s timeout? Something Athom implemented? So no action card (in this the Start card?) may wait more than 30s? I will add error check to the flow.
Sorry, i just tested it, and it turns out to be 60 seconds for the timeout.
Indeed, a flow itself can run for a long time, but each actioncard (and i think conditioncards too) must be finished within 60 seconds, or (also in the flow editor) you will recieve an timeout (Network request failed.).
When i run this for instance: Al goes just fine, after 5 seconds the flowcard is done.
But when i run it for 65 seconds i recieve an error:
The 0s is wrong! It runned for 60 seconds before the error cancelled it.
Sounds like a good implemtation, avoiding too slow action cards.
I changed the delay in my flow to 1s but still get no return value from Test3.

Do I do something wrong?
I guess not, and i donât see anything wrong with it. Please send me your flow and iâll debug him.
This is not about marketing the DC app, but it just saves a lot of my time if people send me there flows/TEFs.
Also, there were a few times already, where you couldnât see the error in the image, but it did show up when importing the TEF. Which saved me a lot of time, because there was just a fault within the flow itself.
I could fix it and send the flow back.
Also, tefâs make sure that i donât make mistakes myself.
I have put a lot of time in perfecting the TFE and SYD with itâs TEFs, and it works a lot better then most people propably think. But itâs time too âwin backâ my invested time by not having to recreate flows and explain how to fix it.
Here f.i. i have imported a âcomplexâ TEF, changed it, and send it back for him to import.
Ok, installed DC.
Here is my flow.

Hmm, think I did not do this correctlyâŚ
Its okay, i can copy it alright.
It looks as if, because of the brackets, the text stays as it should be.
At least, before i start using [TEF:⌠i couldnât copy it when it wasnât within a codeblock.
Still, nicest way is to put it within a codeblock, so the TEF becomes a one-line-scrollbar-field, which doesnât interupt the conversation as much.
And thanks!
Ill look into it!
Okay, i got the same results.
(changed test4 to test 2 again).
Iâll work on it, but i do have some other thing right now i must handle first.
Iâll try to squeze it in.
No hurry, this is not something I am using yet, just tested it out of curiosity.
How do you format code blocks in this forum? I didnât find it in the toolbar and am not familiary with all formatting syntax here.
Okay Gregow, itâs resolved in the latest live version 1.5.3.:
That was a quick fix. Nice work.
I have this âidea for a flowâ that I would like to hear if you think Advanced Triggers is suited for either partly or as the actual trigger.
Challenge:
Trigger when date and time becomes X, Y â where X, Y is variable.
The main idea is to have 1 flow that starts and stops a âstupid oil heaterâ with a smart plug at a given time. I need 3 different time intervals, which is âorderedâ through Siri the day before.
I understand I can make all the 3 different start times and 3 different stop times trigger and check a boolean, but that is nor fun or well spent resources
So I thought I order a triggered time with you reurn card and have the trigger run on a specific date and time. Is that possible in todays version?
