Hub Update 2.1.3

Hubitat Elevation Platform update 2.1.3 is now available

Please note, the process takes about a minute to download (depending on your Internet connection) and extract the hub update, and 1-2 minutes to perform the update after you click 'Update Hub'. We recommend that you periodically download a backup of your setup from the Settings page, Backup and Restore.

Release 2.1.3.120 Available

This hot fix release corrects the problem with Motion Lighting that caused it to not turn on lights until it had been opened and Done hit. Also, an obscure bug in Rule 4.0 related to stoping rule actions was corrected.

Rule 4.0 has 3 new Actions added, each for devices with capability Audio Volume: Set Volume, Mute and Unmute. Also, a Rule 4.0 rule will now identify itself in actions sent to control HSM. This would be visible in Location Events log or HSM app Events log.
