Both Better Logic and CountDown have an configuration page with Variables / Timers you need te configure before the App works. And wetter you made a mistake and deleted all, removed accidentally the App from Homey and lost all… If you forgot to make a backup, you are screwed… If you still have your Flows On homey all configuration can be retrieved. The script is available here [0.5-recreateBL&CD-BackupFromFlows.js](https://github.com/Dijker/nu.Dijker.UnseenHomeyScripts/blob/master/recreateBL%26CD-BackupFromFlows.js) Instructions Install [HomeyScript](https://apps.athom.com/app/com.athom.homeyscript) on your Homey! Go to [https://homeyscript.athom.com/](https://homeyscript.athom.com/) (Preferably from a desktop, Chrome works great.) - Login - Select your Homey - Add a new Script (+ left bottom) - Give it a name… fe recreateBL&CD-BackupFromFlows.js - Open the script from [here (plain text)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Dijker/nu.Dijker.UnseenHomeyScripts/master/recreateBL%26CD-BackupFromFlows.js) Copy All / Paste in your new created HomeyScript Uncomment the App you want to restore configuration for (Line ~ 19, 20 ) ``` // App to Check: Choose one, Better Logic (Patrick Sannes) or CountDown (Ralf van Dooren) // let appName = 'net.i-dev.betterlogic' let appName = 'nl.bevlogenheid.countdown' ``` - Press Save and Run In the result you get a block with the variables and a second block to restore the variables. Copy everything from the lines between the second and third line -=-=-=-=-=- … It should start with [{ and end with }] ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/5/5aad64a35b35afb9a73979f17b698390c08b754b.png) Paste these lines in the Import. on the App configuration screen. Tested with: on Homey v 1.5 x - Better Logic - v0.9.12 - Patrick Sannes - CountDown - v1.2.5 - Ralf van Dooren on Homey v 2.0.0 - CountDown - v2.0.3 - Ralf van Dooren - Better Logic - v1.0.1 - 18.12.18 - Patrick Sannes on Homey v 4.2.0-rc14 - CountDown - v2.0.3 - Ralf van Dooren - Better Logic - v1.0.5 - 18.12.18 - Patrick Sannes ---
