Parent - child app - event subscription

if the parent app turns on a switch and a child of that parent app is subscribed to the switch is the switch on/off event not sent to the child app?

thanks.

Any app subscribed to switch receives the events, it doesn't matter who turned it on.

then something else is going on for this one switch and its events. let me figure it out.

thanks.

Make sure the switch is actually getting the command and sending an event.

yeah going to look at that. the parent app is turning on the switch but the child app is not receiving the event ... apparently. i can see the light actually go on ... but then the child is either not receiving or not processing the light on event.

looking ...

Make sure the device is producing an event in its event logs...

thanks ... yes it is.

how do i check what functions were last executed by an app? kind of like the job history.
