I found it. My connection between WhatsApp and Homey was broken. Does that happen often? If that is the case, I will have to check that every now and then.

Ok Martijn I will use email

It are 2 very basic flows because I just started and I still need to enhance my environment with hopefully a lot of other devices.

Flow 1

Flow 2

If I run the test now I get

Whenever I create the flow and run the test it works 😊 but not when it is saved ☹

Probably the issue is going to be me 😊

@Beneke and you did trigger the Home/Away mode from homey? 😛

@martijnpoppen Would it be possible to get a simple AND card that splits the text of a message received into words and presents them as separate tags to provide as parameters to the next card?

Not entirely sure what is possible, but thinking along the lines of a Card:  
“If \<TextTag#\> contains “MyString” Then Split”  
where TextTag shows a dropdown of split Words, and card output contains all words as tags (or even just Text1, Text2,…).

Example: When a message is received “StartFlow MyFlow LivingRoom”, this card could be used to check if it contains trigger word “StartFlow” (tag Text1) and if so use the default card: Start Flow “MyFlow” (Text2) with Text “LivingRoom” (Text3). Ideally it should be able to handle quotes as well (e.g. Message = StartFlow “My Flow” “Living Room”)

This can probably also be done with jscript or another app, but now we can send messages to Homey it might be nice to have a basic card for that. 🙂

According to the screenshot in attachment

I assume that the Home/Away mode are triggered

And that a whatsapp message should be send.

But that hasn’t happened.

@johan_W that check mark is only for receving messages 😉

It’s unchecked on purpose, otherwise you can create a loop. So only if you know what you’re doing you should tick it
