Now, the log action card gets triggered along with the device action card \> you now know the flow works, but there’s some issue with turning on device X. There’s even a script available to add SL cards to all flows > [@\[APP\]\[Pro\] Simple (Sys) LOG - Use this app for Simple (Sys) Logging](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-simple-sys-log-use-this-app-for-simple-sys-logging/77533/6): > > Script to automaticly include Simple Logging cards into your flows Use this script to automaticly add logging cards to your (advanced and normal) flows: It adds logging to each flowcard’s error catch in advanced flows. Also it adds cards to the triggers (WHEN), conditions (AND) and actions (THEN). It will generate one Automater flowcard in each flow.
