I have a rule for cancelling all alerts. I would like to trigger it with a tile on my dashboard. (Sharptools menus have this built in). How do I create a tile on my dashboard that will trigger this rule? Since there is no device to add not sure how to create the tile. Thanks
You could create a Virtual Device, like a Virtual Switch and then use that as the trigger for the Hubitat Rule.
You can either configure the Virtual Switch to automatically turn itself back off or you can have the rule do it.
Iād use a button tile for this to operate a momentary switch virtual device which can be used to trigger a rule to cancel the HSM alerts. You can also use a nice background image on the tile to reflect its usage.
I use the HSM template for this. It would add an extra touch but no need to create anything. The tile shows the current state and clicking it brings up all options and logs:
Understood. Just am trying to create something without choices to make in the dark without my glasses. Less opportunity for touching the wrong thing. I have a button set up and working, more or less, but HSM does not consistently cancel alerts so it is not very reliable. I have lights set up to come on during an alert and it often does not turn them back off when cancelling and I can't figure out why. Guess I will keep chipping away at it.
I had/have the same issue. I seem to recall it worked properly the last few times but I can't quite remember.
