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.
You should know the flow card uses the contents of a tag, not it’s name.
So, if the contents of [Peter Mobiel]
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
OK, so now I learned that the card looks for the content of a tag, not it’s name. That is already very helpful, thank you.
For the S, s, or wildcard suggestion; they all return no result
That makes sense, as you commented that it looks for the content and not the name. I also learned from your feedback that the search is case sensitive. This is good to stipulate, as the search functions in Homey are not case sensitive.
Yet still then I don’t fully grasp it. While trying to search for the content of a variable, I tried the following:
I have various flows using the status of one of my Heat Pumps.
And yes, I had tried to look for different outcomes with ‘Plat’ on or off, but I could not distinguish any different outcomes.
I am just trying to find out what flow is using a certain variable name, not its content. Maybe I was off on the wrong foot, as I read that this card was developed based on a script "where are my variables used’ - which I inferred as a tool to search based on the name.
And again. My first issue was from devices of app “Virtual Devices” and I changed them to Homey native virtual devices (Experiments section in settings). The change didn’t help; sama issue appears with them too.
Also for @SingKT .
The device you are selecting, do they have insights?
If you open the device f.i. in the Honey app, does it show on/off info on the insight tab?
Somewhat similar situation for the tags-version of this card: I can manually input the name of a device (like my Netatmo weather station) and select a capability in the list of tags (temperature token), but it does not retrieve any values / change timestamps. I only returns a 0 value.
@iBosvelt
Thanks.
But sorry, i dont see the obvious reason for the list not to show-up.
However, you do have an error in reflection with a device.
Somewhere you are reflecting something of Lamp-Badkamer. Perhaps an old device or timeouts?
I tried several devices. Maybe it was because of a specific device that didn’t work. But it does not appear to work with any device.
I have the homey pro '23 and latest firmware. 12.3.0 off the top of my head.
I don’t know if other users are experiencing the same thing or if I am the only one. Maby @SunBeech?
This worked, but i discovered that ‘Retrieve the insights…’-cards (without tag) were not updated through this script. (I use these a lot).
By the way, these retrieve insights cards are also not updated via import AVD with flows: the flows are copied correctly, but the retrieve insights cards refer to the old device. Is this fixable?
I already started to use the Retrieve insights card with tags, so I only have to update the ID’s on one place when copying AVD’s with flows. But the card without tag is much easier to use.
