Hi,

Is there a way to add categorie? like work, private or family?  
Because then its possible to send whatsapp message with work account or trigger another flow action. like starting lang zal ze leven via sonos 🙂

the card "get who’s next up for a birthday"doesnt work with version 0.2.2 by me.

Thanks for this great app 🙂

That’s absolutely right. There are also no tokens attached to the condition cards. So what he wants is not possible. You can use the time trigger card to then send out a message using your tokens.

I can provide further details on this.

In the earlier version, there were global tokens available for use, which held information about the individual celebrating their birthday on that day.

In the most recent update, we’ve made a change regarding global tokens. This adjustment was necessary as the global tokens didn’t support situations where multiple people share a birthday on the same day.

Instead of relying on global tokens, I recommend you use the “Celebrate someone’s birthday” trigger now. This trigger will initiate your flow for every individual celebrating their birthday today. Additionally, it provides the necessary tokens with information about the person celebrating.

@Paul_van_Ulft They are there, right? That’s always with the test function.  
Surely you can do current time + 1 minute and wait for the trigger?
