Multiple tags with the same name

Questions & Help

Hi!

I’m trying to do my most advanced flow yet. Parsing JSON and whatever and after a while a noticed I’ve got three tags whiched are all named Resultat (result, in english). I can’t rename them since Homey decided that’s what they have to be named and I can’t check their content without starting the flow. Even then, it’s hard to choose the right one for a card.

Is there any solution for this? As of now, I have to create a notification card and send all of them to my phone just to check which is which. And even then its confusing. How about a solution for this?

Hover your mouse over the token name on the selection list, it should then wiggle the token icon on the flow card the result token belongs to.

Indeed, hovering on the tag shows the associated flowcard. Unfortunately it is not possible to change the name of the auto-generated ‘Result’ tags.

An alternative is to store the result of the originating flowcards in variables, which you can name as you wish.

Another solution can be using the JSON handler app. You can read 10 tags with one flowcard, and the all have different names. Makes it easier when handling larger JSON files.

Holy… I’ve never noticed this! That solved my problem right away, thank’s alot.

@SunBeech I’ve thought about that too, but it feels like an over-engineered solution.

@Arie_J_Godschalk Thanks! Even though wiggeling it solved the problem, I’ll probably still find a use for it, so thanks for the tip!
