This category is created to show, and explain the working of specific Flows in homey.
When a person is detected by my Ring doorbell, I want to short flashing let the bulbs in a specific room.
first, RING does only provide alerts for movement detection but does not share if a person is detected (which is a specific type of movement detection) OR if the button is pushed. It should be much appreciated if this type of information would be available in HOMEY as well.
how to let the HUE BULPB flash. Currently, I only have the possibility to turn it off, wait for a second, and turn it on. This, of course, is a notable solution, but I prefer a short flash. Is such possible?
I don’t know why you repeat the information about the “flow category”? Especially since you should now be aware that you are asking your questions in the wrong category. The “Questions & Help” category would have been the correct category. Or the relevant App threads. @Dijker, @Caseda, @Jamie could someone of you move the post to the right category? Thanks!
Have you searched in the relevant thread to see if these functions are even possible with Homey? You can also submit a feature request to the app developer in this thread.
These points are already on the ToDo list regarding movement detection. Maybe this is exactly what you need:
It would be important to know which Hue app you are using. I myself use the “Philips Hue, without the bridge” app (by J. Bendz) and can say from my own experience that there is a flow card for this and it works:
And if I have a look at the Philips Hue App (by Athom) in the App Store, there is also a flow card for flashing the bulb:
What I do not know, if this will work with any model of lamp/bulb.
