Send message to other homey and execute action

I have two homeys.

One old pro and a new pro.

I would like to send a message using a flow from the new homey to the old, where it will be used in a flow that is started by the message arriving on the old Homey.

The Homeys are in different locations, so the communication will have to take place over the internet.

Is this possible using built in functions, or do I need an app or do I need to submit a feature request to Athom?

You can use webhooks.
You can find them under “logic”
There you can post a request and/or act when you receive a webhook.

Thank you! I’ll try and figure out the correct way of doing things. The cards seem to have changed. Do you have an example flow?

I created 2 flows. Since i only have 1 homey i send and receive on the same homey. In your case the sender would be on the new homey and the receive on the old one.

The first flow sends a post message.

.
You Will have to replace the homey id with the homey id of the receiving side.

In the second flow i react when the webhook is received.

As you can see you can even add an addtional argument/tag to the call, in this case “testtext”. On the receiving side you can use that of you want/need.

With the Homesh app set, you can control things directly.

But using webhooks is pretty straightforward, when you get the hang of it.

But a new app should get published by Athom soon™, to link your Homey’s
