I am not sure if many people would like this feature however, I would like to be able to disable notifications until next event via a dashboard button. Is there any way to integrate this feature?
example: I have auto lock enabled on my door. I programmed it to repeat message every minute if left unlocked. If I bypass the auto lock and leave my door unlocked, I have my Echo bellowing every minute that the front door has been left unlocked. I would like to be able to have a button on the Dashboard that would
have a button to increase the time to repeat to say 30 minutes until next event.
have a MUTE button for that specific event.
Anyone else interested in this feature?
Add Mute/Bypass/Delay integration between Notifications and Dashboard.
I never used it, but have you looked at Message Central by cobra? I believe if you centralise your messages through it, you could restrict it using a switch like you said
The feature "Switch to disable Notifications" is already there under Restrictions. Just make a simple rule that turns a switch off after a delay. If you want it to be activated by a button, simply make that the trigger device of your rule.
Thanks for the information, SmartHomePrimer.
I was able to perform one of my 2 steps though.
I had to use the Rules Machine and Virtual Switch to turn off the Virtual switch for next trigger.
Detect door locked
Then turn off Virtual Switch if it was on.
Therefore, using the Restrictions, I was able to set the Virtual switch to turn off the alerts.
Now the only other option is to trigger a 15-30 minutes delayed alert... I guess I can create a secondary door alert for long term alerting. Is this the route to go??
