[image] Sprotte: It would be awsome if i could set the cumulative property also for meter_power, meter_gas and meter_water. Then it would be possible to create a virtual smart meter that could be used with homey energy, see Energy | Homey Apps SDK @Arie_J_Godschalk Any thoughts on that?

Hello @Petclaud , In general, I notice you mistake “it doesn’t work” for “empty result” (= no matching flows found). When it actually would not work, the flow card would error, or return no data at all. [image] Petclaud: Using the same example, but now using a Tag, does not work: You shoul…

Hi @Peter_Kawa , Thank you for your elaborate answer, much appreciated. Ah, you are right: ‘does not work’ can be read as ‘does not return the expected result’, hence I wrote twice ‘I don’t understand’ and I cannot figure it out :grinning: OK, so now I learned that the card looks for the content …

Can someone perhaps explain to me how to use this card ’ receive the insight value’? I can’t find it anywhere on the forum. I can select a device, but never a capability. Typing ’ onoff’ is not accepted and no dropdown menu becomes available. [image]

YW, @Petclaud!

And about Flat Y/N, here the flattened result shows less additional info.
