No IR in my config Peter. I only have some standard light bulbs, sockets, a remote lock, a numeric keypad and heater. I made an exact copy of this flow [[App][Pro] Tuya Cloud - #765 by Peter\_Kawa](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-tuya-cloud/21313/765) to receive status messages. Unfortunately no message is received at all. Is there another way to see some debugging or logging in Homey if anything is received from Tuya Cloud? Or can it be a setting in Tiya Cloud itself? IoT Core and Device Status Notification for example are both in service and recently extended. ---

I have found an interesting behavior with a Tuya Wall Socket. The socket is always ON and in the socket there is a water heater with thermostat which switches the heater ON and OFF. The socket reports power consumption to the cloud and I receive the _cur\_power_ messages. When there is no power consumption (heater off) I receive 0 W, when there is power consumption (heater on) I receive the actual value. All fine until following scenario: socket ON, heater OFF =\> I receive power consumption 0W, then perform either a Tuya Cloud app restart or a Homey reset, then when everything is online and the heater is still OFF I receive the last power consumption that was greater than 0 (say 1500 W) before the app restart or homey restart. All goes back to normal after there is a change of status of power consumption (heater switches back ON). I suspect when consumption is 0, there is no such value reaching the Homey app because checking the Tuya log in IoT Tuya web, there is no such 0 W value in the log file. So I guess there might be a status message sent instead of the 0 W power consumption. So the message I guess is received in the app but also the last power consumption value is still there. Does any of you found this issue, too.? Is there hope for a fix considering there is no real maintenance support available anymore? ---

Ah I see, I thought it was about saving the Tuya Events to a log No the simple log app just stores what you send to it by flowcards. The device log is, as far as I know, not controllable by anyone/anything but Homey. But, when you create a virtual device for the ā€˜switch\_ledā€™ True/False events, it should show up in the device log, where your red markings are. Drive it with a flow like this (donā€™t have Tuya Cloud app anymore, so I used Notes, but you get the idea I hope): ![Screenshot from 2023-11-15 00-13-55](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/6/d6339edca4c73e64eb1ce198a9c8a4cdaeab9d27.png) Result: ![Screenshot from 2023-11-15 00-12-54](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/1/913d5d72f660bf5ab75e2d462cd0c0bfbd9e7f0a.png) ---

Yes, I want to see the Tuya Events but not in any log. I want to see them in the device log as in your initial picture. Itā€™s about the Tuya Cloud events.
