How do you trigger Virtual Motion Detector using a local endpoint?

First time playing w/ virtual motion detectors.... I needed a motion detector I could trigger with a local endpoint.

So I've created a Virtual Motion Detector device (VMD) which when triggered, goes back to inactive state automatically. But now, how do I trigger it using a local endpoint? I explored the RM app where I could add the local endpoint trigger, but in the Actions, I can't find an option to trigger the VMD.

Look for Custom Action - setActive or similar

ahhh, it's considered custom... OK I think I found it, thank you!

Yeah, that whole custom versus non-custom action is pretty goofy when you think about it.

For the user - An action is an action is an action, and they should all just be listed together all the time.

But that would likely be a breaking change at this point, so will likely remain as it is for the foreseeable future.
