It’s all good, but I’d be happy to redraft the blurb if you ever wanted. The issue I’m having now is that Signal is not appearing when I create a Flow to trigger the info from the Tuya devices. It’s definitely installed, because it appears in App Settings. I’ve tried this on the web app and on the mobile app. I’ve also restarted Homey a couple of times. ---

Always use the ‘text message’ trigger for new stuff, it triggers on any message type. Otherwise, take a look at the tap-to-run scenes instead, but, idk if this is of any use with wall switches (don’t own one). Oh, if you want to restart things, the app restart would suffice, no need for Homey restarts. Ps. I dropped dev Jurgen a note, to see if I can get the rights to be able to improve the 1st post, with your help ---

I appreciate all the help and quick replies, especially on a Saturday, but I’m still hitting a brick wall. What are the exact steps for setting up the flow? WHEN Tuya Cloud _text event received_ THEN Signal _send message_ I can’t select Signal. I’ve followed all the steps outlined on the Signal app page with creating an API key. When I go to add Signal as a device, the API key is invalid. This is what I meant earlier when I said the steps are not clearly defined. It’s probably quite obvious when you know all of the steps, but for someone coming into this afresh, it’s all very vague and you’re left to jump through multiple hoops. It’s making the whole process and my first experience with Homey very convoluted and frustrating. I’ve been trying to get this to work now for about six hours and I’m still no closer to getting a simple, very popular Zigbee device, into Homey. Video titles like this, really come across as false advertising.

Ok I’ve FINALLY figured out how to do the flow and the Switch has sent over the info to Signal. Now for the next step! ---

FINALLY got this working 😅 What’s also cool with this method is that you can basically jail break the switch and turn a single\_click function into a toggle switch, rather than using long\_press as an off function. ---

Sadly my switches have stopped responding completely and they’re not sending any data to Signal ☹ ---

The RAW messages are still send most probably, but I guess your Signal account is banned (too many messages in a certain timeframe - it’s limited because it’s free of charge), while you should disable the “receive any text and send it to Signal” flow as soon as you’ve discovered the data you need for a device. It can send many many messages! You can consider replacing the Signal card with a Simple Log card, this stores the messages on Homey storage. But only enable that flow when you need to find out incoming data. ---

Hi all, anyone knows what is going on here? I keep getting Homey notifications and Simple Sys Log app is posting the same notifications on my Homey timeline. As far as I know, I haven’t changed anything. Maybe an update of the Homey or update of the Tuya Cloud app, has created this bug. Via the Tuya Cloud app, I have added a dehumidifier. This works very well since a few years, but since a few weeks, I suddenly get these very annoying notifications. These notifications are not coming from a flow. It’s either from the Tuya Cloud app, or in Tuya Smart on the desktop they have changed something. The dehumidifier has not get an update. My Homey 2023 is updated manually. Tuya Cloud app updates automatically. Anyone knows where this issue is coming from? Till now, either I have to stop Homey notifications, but that means all which is not nice. Or disconnect the dehumidifier from Homey, but that also not nice as it is programmed with flows. Hope someone knows how to help! ![IMG_7244.PNG](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/b/0/b021f461eb857520f03f3a901912c0e0d1cedbc1.jpeg) ---
