Screens see open/closed status using tags

[Borssie]

Hi all ,

I do have a question about something I can’t make it to work. Maybe it’s an easy fix, but I don’t know how to deal with it.

Situation:

I have 3 screens which I connected with Homey through Matter. I made a good flow which works quite well, although I would like to see on my timeline at a glace which screen has been opened/closed. I could make a timeline message for each and every screen, but it should also be possible with tags right?

This is a part of the flow I made:

At the end of the flow (So after the mobile notification) I would like to make a timeline stamp to say which screen (Achterdeur/Slaapkamer/Gardeobekamer) is closed/opened

How can I achieve this with tags? I tried help from Gemini and also searched on the community but I can’t make it work….

Hope someone here can tell me in an easy way how to approach this

Anyone?

IMHO you can have 2 notifications:
contact-alarm on: ‘back-door is still open’
contact-alarm off: ‘all screens are down’

Hi @Wim_Post

Thank you for thinking with me, but that’s no exactly what I mean.

I want to have logic been used to let me know which screen is open/closed in the timeline.

[Wim_Post]

In the textfield of the notification: if you click the tag button and fill the device-name in the searchfield, what tags are listed?

[Borssie]

There are no tags. That’s the whole thing I added my screens through matter. I can see the status of the screens and the percentage they are closed/opened on Homey. I want to use logic to have a better overview and to make it easier for myself for creating extensive Flows

@Borssie

There are no tags.

That’s quite odd.
What capabilities are shown when you look up that device in https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/devices?

Looks like this

When there’s capabilities in there, there should be tags as well ( in theory )

This is the list of capabilities one of the screens have. I’m just wondering how to implement them using tags (to identify them independently)

[Anoniemand]

Just to be sure, you are using the timeline card? (the timeline cards are missing in your initial flow). I don’t see any reason why tags in the timeline card wouldn’t show any capability for the device (as Peter_Kawa screenshot shows).

To identify them independently you’ll have to make sure you select the right one (in Peter_Kawa screenshot it shows the device "Rolgordijn Achter… "

Hi @Anoniemand ,

I haven’t posted my complete flow. I will check both messages from you and Peter about the capabilities. Thanks both for helping me
