Hi,

In relation to my question in the “questions” section I am pitching for the following feature:

> [@Do Cards have an outtput?](https://community.homey.app/t/do-cards-have-an-outtput/29234):
>
> Hi, I have configured a flow with the telegram app handing over the input to the Emulate card. This allows me to give commands to homey using Telegram. This works amazingly well and brings a lot of conveniences. What I’m struggling with is to also get answers to questions (eg. “What is the temperature in the house”. “is anybody home?”). Asking a question on telegram does not output an answer and from what I can see, the Emulate card does not provide any output. Is there a way to get output fro…

It would be great if itt was possible to do more with the output of a card - eg the status of an action (success, no success) or a string that contains relevant output.

In a way, this is already covered by tags in many cards, but **the reason I am asking is that I am specifically missing this in the Emulate cared, which has a lot of intelligence behind it to come up with useful output**. As suggested it would also be interesting to be able to adopt flows to the status of a previous card.

Thank you in advance.

Welcome, Remarkable, that people that have done “Read 17m” already ask for extension of the capability of Homey, but it is allowed of course, therefore you have to contact Athom them selves, this is only a Community-forum, and Athom is not reading a lot here.  
So, Join the community today, or [learn more about Homey »](https://www.athom.com/?utm_campaign=community-header&utm_medium=forum&utm_source=community.athom.com)
