Thanks, I found the problem. The PIN is sent as a string and not as a number, so I changed the token type to string.
Make sure to use a condition card that tests on text in your flow!
The new test version is available at: Heimdall | Homey

Version 2.10.20
- Added Silent Code to handling Keypad PIN codes
You can now ad an extra digit to your PIN code when disarming from your 3rd party Keypad to be used in a flow. Hereās inspiration to create a flow to use this Silent Code:
Hello, I Got a Simple Question But canāt find the answer. Heimdall has several users. Al User have there one Pin code or RFID Tag. (using a Friend keypad) Now i want a Notification if a Certain User Disarmed the Alarm and Witch User Disarmed the Alarm
So I Want To Flows.
- If the user ā%Username%ā disarmed the alarm then ļ
- IF The Alarm is disarmed then make a Notification User ā%username%ā Disarmed the Alarm.
Can Someone help me Please.
Thanks
Ronald
Thereās no flowcard available for this, as mentioned before:
Athom has still not provided a method to know which user performed an action in Homey so the same reasoning still applies.
Mmm Strange reasoning. The Heimdall App has the users and the Pin/RFID. So therre can be a tag when a Pin/RFID is used.
Then my Reasoning would be Heimdall gets a pin/RFID Translate it back to the user account in the heimdall app and make the account a TAG you can use.
Well, not from my point of view.
When a keypad is involved the user is known, yes, but when no keypad is used no user is known.
Only a fraction of the Heimdall users is using a Keypad, so most users would end up with a tag that would make no sense and ask me to fix it, which is impossible.
Hence my choice to not include a tag.
I donāt think I fully understand.
Users, Pincode, and RFID are managed in Heimdall.
The Frient keypad works together with Heimdall.
When I create a flow that disables the alarm in Heimdall, I donāt interact with the keypad.
I create a flow that is triggered when Heimdallās status changes. In the Heimdall app, it is also visible that a user enters a code. So Heimdall knows which code was used and to which user it is linked.
In fact, the Heimdall appās dashboard clearly shows which user disabled the alarm.
It should be simple to retrieve this information and use it to create a notification in a flow.
Greetings Ronald
Yes, it would be simple when a keypad is used, but when there is no keypad it is impossible.
So it would result in expectations that canāt be met and Iām not willing to support that.
I use Heimdall combined with a frient keypad. I set up a delay for both the enabling of the alarm and the triggering of the alarm. When I enable the alarm, the delay works fine. But when I open a door with a door sensor, the alarm triggers within a second. In the screenshots, youāll find my settings. Can you point out whatās the problem?
I have door and motion sensors on my patio screen enclosure for my pool. 2 doors are just screen enclosure doors to the yard and 1 door sensor is my house door to the patio. Can I set up surveillance just on that area using specific sensors and a siren that is located out there?
I have my whole house already set up under surveillance but want to add just a section for the pool in case children enter the area and we are not aware of that.
Example: Main surveillance would be the whole house, 2nd surveillance zone would be the pool/patio area only. I was looking at making a virtual button to just turn on/off a sensor flow for those doors but I canāt seem to find how to do that (yet)
Thanks
Hi,
Did you also select Delay on the particular door that needs the delay?
There is an Armed and Partially Armed Surveillance Mode and there are flow cards to add and remove devices from a particular Surveillance Mode. Please see the FAQ.
Thanks again for the responses.
My original set up is Partially armed = Arm Stay. This means we are home and probably sleeping. If any door or window alarm activates- lights turn on, and sirens sound immediately.
Surveillance mode Armed = Armed Away. This allows for a delay when we come home and have time to disarm using our panel.
The pool screen doors would not be on these modes.
What are your thoughts based on this information?
Thank you
I think your use case can be perfectly met with the option to dynamically adjust your Surveillance Modes, as mentioned before, please check the FAQ.
Thereās a question there about what you want with a short answer and a link to a post explaining how it works.
Thank you. I will re-read them.
Does anyone know if I can make Heimdall notify a 3rd party telephone? I would like, in case of movement in the house when away, that the notification also is sent to a 3rd party (a nightbour or friend) in case weāre unable to respond. Is it possible, and how?
No, thatās not possible.

Option 1
You can add your neighbor or friend as a guest to Homey. The problem is that they are then able to control devices and start flows.
However, as long as you are at home, you can deactivate the guest accounts. If you leave your home, the guest accounts must be activated. However, deactivation/activation can be automated via Flow.
For more information please check the support article ā Adding, managing & removing user accounts on Homey -
Option 2
There are apps available with which you can inform your neighbors and friends via WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram or Facebook Messenger.
As I donāt use any of these apps myself, I canāt say anything more about them.
-
Option 3
You notify your neighbors/friends by email.
As I donāt use this app myself, I canāt say anything more about it.
There may also be other options that Iām not aware of. Cheers!

Not directly by Heimdall, but in a flow this is possible using the callmebot app in combination with telegramā¦see Phone call triggered by Homey - #6 by Chris_Peters
