[APP][Pro] Device Capabilities - Enhance the capabilities of devices

I’ve created several ‘nummervelden’ and I want to change the order they’re displayed. For example I want T rooster as first instead of T out. Afaik now I have to delete all the ‘nummervelden’ save and close and start over again with T rooster as the first entry. I would like to be able to change the sequence directly in the ‘nummervelden’ dialogue.

I hope this is helpful?

Though not ideal, but a less cumbersome option compared to completely removing the items, a change in icon also triggers a re-order. So change all the icons to some other one, save and then - in the order of which you want the items to appear - change the icons back.

Hi

I have made this simple flow, but nothing happens when a Presense Sensor becomes unavailable?

Same on my side. This card seems to trigger only when the according app becomes un-/available.

Bummer …
Pretty useless then :frowning:

I once built something like this using standard flows.

  • A yes/no variable, e.g. Sensor 1
  • Flow: if motion detected, then set Sensor 1 variable to yes
  • Flow: if time is 00:00, set Sensor 1 variable to no
  • Flow: if time is 23:59 and variable is set to no, then send a push notification to the user: Sensor 1 not working.

It’s not 100% accurate, but it lets you know if the sensor hasn’t detected any movement within 24 hours.

Thanks!
But I would like to be informed when it’s unavaible - not that it has no movement,

At least this gives you a clue that you should have a look at the presence detector. It would be unusual if it didn’t register anything for 24 hours. You can then assume that it’s no longer working.
Unfortunately, I don’t have any other solution.

Edit:
Have a look at the Heimdall app. I seem to recall that you can set up a flow that triggers if a device hasn’t checked in with Homey for 24 hours.

Actually, the homey-api doesn’t always update the Device in het api when it changes status.

I’ll see if the update version fixes this.

Good afternoon,

I would like to import a flow. Below you can see a photo showing how far I get. Afterwards, I don’t understand the steps to create a flow. Can someone provide me with some info/step-by-step plan regarding this?

I also used Homey API Playground and pressed the run button, but from then on I don’t know what I need to do.

Thanks in advance

Can you add Seconds, Minutes, Hours for lists? or find a way to create custom ones?

I think you’re looking for this request form

Oh thanks!

@Peter_Kawa If you know, do i put NO or NB? I’m Norwegain and use NB (Norwegian Bokmal/Norsk Bokmål) so do i put NO as Norway only or does NB work? (More specific)

I think you’d discuss with Athom, John William; they refer to “Norwegian” (no) as “the” language:

Alright, thanks! Then it makes sense why the web app snd mobile app are 2 different Norwegians..

It would be super useful if I can check if a device is offline in a “AND” statement and not in a “WHEN”. Is this possible? Because I already missed the event of that device being not available, so I would like to continue check if is available again or not every X minutes.

Hi @Arie_J_Godschalk, I understand - based on earlier posts above - that for the Value argument in the following card:

you should not use tags/variables. But stupid me did apparently use BLL variables in some of my flows :blush:. I did not notice it before, as the flows have multiple triggers, but just recently found out that those flows did not trigger when using a BLL variable as input for the card.

I did some further testing on when the card triggers and when not, by sending a test notification to the timeline:

I found that when using a standard Logic variable as input for the value field, the card does trigger. Not sure whether that was always the case or due to a change in a recent Homey OS firmware.

This makes me wonder: would you also be able to get this card to work with BLL variables as input for the value argument?

Hi Riccardo,

Just connect the error output of any AND flowcard for a certain device, to the “restart app X” card.
I add a 30m timer in the mix, to prevent restart loops.
Start the advanced flow by a “every x minutes” trigger card.
