Push message with picture video doorbell and action for opening gate

Questions & Help
1

Hello there,

I’m looking for a flow like this:

  • Doorbell rings
  • Push notification with snapshot to mobile
  • In this push notification a question to open the gate yes/no

How can I make this?

In standard flow you’ll need to split it into two flows for the two push cards
1
When..
doorbell
Then..
-(create doorbell snapshot)
-Push message snapshot (after 1s)

stuff between () depends on the need

2
When..
doorbell
And..
Push with question to open the gate yes/no
Then…
(only if question was answered yes)
-open gate

No.
Next time, you’ll add what you’ve come up with already. Now I feel like a fool :expressionless_face:

You can achieve this effect if you’re prepared to use a third party messaging app. The idea is to send a single message containing both the snapshot image and a URL. The URL is a Homey webhook which triggers a flow to open the gate. That way you get a single message and if you tap on the link in that message then the gate opens. You can achieve this for example with the Pushover app and probably others too.
