I want to share with you my recent development with Hubitat and Node-RED . node-red-contrib-hubitat It is some generic nodes to facilitate the integration with Hubitat. The challenge was to found the middle between generic and easy of use. I will be very happy to have your feedbacks and discuss abou…

@aaiyar @csteele Thank you both! I looked at the options you both sent and was able to easily implement a template to do what I needed. Looking for any efficiencies I can across my Zigbee networks.

you should be able to do it with a single JSONata expression. here is an example of a global and a flow variable being combined. [IMG_0040] edit: as an aside, I usually string together two nodes for this because I reuse my global color temp nodes, then I just add on the desired level to the argu…

Oh indeed, it could be a nice to have I don't know when I will have time to do it, but I added to the enhancement list ( github issue ) [image] JasonJoel: Many of the built-in nodes support mustache referencing, so this certainly would not be unheard of. Can you point me the built-in node tha…

Template node is the most obvious one, with its mustache syntax documented here: https://mustache.github.io/mustache.5.html I'll look for other ones. I know other nodes support it, but I need to go look which ones. I was probably too glib in saying "many" of them support it - more truthful is like…

I'm having a reliability problem with NR calls to HE. For instance, a have a Virtual Button set up via NR to turn off all the apartment lights, 35 circuits in total. When clicking it, almost always 1 to 4 random circuits remain on, if I click it again, normally the remaining circuits are turned of…

I had a similar issue. It was very intermittent. Sometimes all lights would turn off other times just some. I put it down to the network being flooded with commands. I solved my issue by separating the devices into groups depending on location. Bedrooms, bathrooms, lounge etc. etc. By putting in …

I put it down to the network being flooded with commands. It shouldn't be a problem. Some web pages make hundreds of http requests on first access, and they are not even to the same network. But what you said makes sense, I have some other actions involving less devices, and those are working fl…

[image] eduardo: Probably HE has a low limit on the number of http connections :thinking: That and/or the difference in resources between a PC and the HE hub. Either way I think less calls being made is the way to go as well. One other benefit you may be able to get is group messaging or so…

While a LAN connection (WiFi or Ethernet) is measured in MB and GB, the Z-Device (mesh) networks top out at 250KB and as low as 9.6KB. It's the mesh network congestion that needs pacing.
