Hey,

I was wondering whether anyone has developed a method to assign Homey a phone number that can initiate a sequence.

I would like to dial a particular number to open my garage door; unfortunately, the door cannot link directly to Homey, so I plan to use a SwitchBot clicker on a remote.

Welcome, SDG,

How do you pass the command from homey to ClickSend? Via webhook? What does the string look like then?

These apps are meant to call other phone numbers. @SDG probably wants to be able to call Homey from a phone. This might be possible using an external solution which can trigger Homey webhooks (`https://webhook.app/<cloudid>/<event>`), you can find the Cloud ID in More-\>Settings-\>General, and you cam create Flows based on the event (specify the event name in the Flow trigged)
