With the flow that I created, I would expect that the flow starts as soon as I use the Tuya app on my phone to control one of my Tuya devices, right? Or if one of my Tuya devices is controlled by Homey. Well, that doesn’t happen. I don’t have any scenes setup in the Tuya app. Is that the only way a text message is sent to the Tuya devices? ---

> [@Rudi\_Hendrix](#): > > the flow starts as soon as I use the Tuya app on my phone to control one of my Tuya devices Correct. That is how it should work when everything is configured 100% OK. > [@Rudi\_Hendrix](#): > > Well, that doesn’t happen. I don’t have any scenes setup in the Tuya app. Is that the only way a text message is sent to the Tuya devices? No, it is just to verify your Tuya Cloud uses the official API, and thus works OK. Just [create a simple tap-to-run](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-tuya-cloud/21313/296), like turn on light X, restart Tuya Cloud app, or hit the `Refresh Scenes` button. Now see if you can select and run it by the “Execute a scene” flow card. If that works, I expect the “text message flow” to work as well. _**Are you sure that flow is (still) enabled?**_ Might sound stupid, but it happened to me a few times 🤪🙈 Also, Homey tends to disable flows which get triggered to many times in a certain timeframe. Without any notification, but not sure if that’s still the case. ---

Ah, like that. The flow is still enabled, but I don’t have any scenes. Ok, just created a scene, added a flow in Homey to start the scene. Everything works and the light is switched on. But I get no push notification at all. ---

OK, so it seems to work. Hmmmm… I don’t know why you still don’t get any message. What happens when you add other flow cards to send the results? (Like the timeline notification, or Simple Log?) ---

Replaced the push notification card with a timeline card. Restarted the Tuya Cloud app, Switched some of my Tuya WiFi devices. Hit my tap to run test scene. Everything is working. However…nothing on the time line. This is not a huge issue as I have more than enough other things to do (on my home automation) 🙂 But as I am following this topic, I was curious as to how this works…and it doesn’t in my case 😉 I am definitely doing something wrong. I just don’t know what… ---

Yes, you need to check all steps in post # 1 again. But first, open app configuration, change API to “official only”: > ![Screenshot_20240301-040427_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/5/f/5f0be4ef974aaad45fe994f3f58ba88a890a7415.jpeg) _Yours is still set to “use both”_ Make sure to use the right telephone country code & format. Check for hidden white spaces.

Ok, double checked. It is set to " Use official only", “31” and " Tuya". Has been like that for months/years ---

I know 🙂 Thought I’d just clarify we seem to have different issues. I cannot stress enough that to me this is a nice to have. So far things are working. And controlling the battle ball lights is ok for now. ---

Thanks. I’ve never had to change it, so not sure what’s going on with your setup. > [@Yankee\_Delta](#): > > any idea on the message coming to fast problem? Try using Simple Log app log cards, it’s way quicker than timeline or push messages, and it can’t get rate limited (it writes logs to Homey’s local storage). But, _you actually don’t really need such a discovery flow_, you can just open your iot project, and check for a device which ID it has, and which commands it sends. Then you can build a flow like: When… -tuya text message received And… -device ID: [the ID number] -function name: switch (just as example) -function value: main (just as example) Then… -do something [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-tuya-cloud-this-app-allows-you-to-connect-homey-to-the-tuya-cloud/21313.md?page=104) [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-tuya-cloud-this-app-allows-you-to-connect-homey-to-the-tuya-cloud/21313.md?page=106)
