### When adding a device is not possible, try using the so called RAW Commands functionality.

Howto:  
-With the flow below, you´ll be able to “listen” to event messages of your devices;  
In this example a message of the ‘text’ type, which will return text, numeric and yes/no values.  
So, when you trigger the device you want to control from the Tuya Smart mobile app ([Google store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tuya.smart&pli=1) / [Apple store](https://apps.apple.com/nl/app/tuya-smart/id1034649547)), or the SmartLife mobile app ([Google store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tuya.smartlife) / [Apple store](https://apps.apple.com/nl/app/smart-life-smart-living/id1115101477))  
or when you just activate a sensor,  
you’ll catch the _device ID_, _function name_ and _function value_ events, which you’ll need to trigger flows like you want them to, or to control the Tuya devices you had in mind:
