Can someone tell me how to trouble shoot an issue I'm having with lights randomly shutting off on their own? I'm new to Hubitat from SmartThings. In SmartThings I could easily drill down in the logs and figure out what rule, app, etc. was causing the issue. I understand you can look in the logs in Hubitat but when I open the logs under live logs this is what I see. So what is turning this off?
What does [digital] mean?
Do you happen to have Alexa? Was talking to someone this morning where Alexa Hunches had decided to turn off lights on its own. Look for an Alexa Routine that you don’t remember creating.

go to the devices tab and select "Under Cabinet Lights". scroll to the bottom and see what's in the "In Use By" section. Investigate each of those. As @thebearmay said, if you're sharing it to Alexa, make sure you have the hunches disabled
Yes I do have Alexa. I did have this issue before it was a routine that was causing the lights to turn off at sunrise. I thought that was the case initially and glanced at my routines and did not see anything that stood out. I will dig deeper I just thought it would show in the logs other than [Digital} thanks for the suggestion.
I went to Alexa app and Hunches was not even set up yet. I will keep looking into Alexa causing it somehow
The [digital] just says that it was a command that came through the hub so not a lot of help. In addition to hunches sometimes Alexa will make “suggestions” and then implement them if it interprets your response as an approval - this occurs even with hunches turned off. If you go to the device, at the bottom it should show all of the HE apps and rules with links to it that HE knows about.
If you think Alexa may be the culprit you can remove the device from the Alexa app to see if it solves the issue.
Also if you go to the device page in HE and scroll to the bottom it will show all the rules that control the device. Possible a rule that you set up as a test is still getting triggered.
