[RELEASE] Geofency Presence

So I started from scratch and found my issue. In the Multi-User API app I never hit "Done" after I specified the device and got the URL. Once I did that it works...

Now I feel stupid...

Any recommendations on an iBeacon to use in the house for tracking coming and going? Thanks

I know it’s been a while since you asked, and you may have figured it out, but Geofency is iOS only. For Android , I strongly recommend @Johndc7 Improved Mobile Presence Hopefully this helps you, or someone looking for a similar solution.

Actually, I've moved on to OwnTracks. Some remarkable work being done by @lpakula

Which iBeacon device(s) are you using?

I don’t think he makes them anymore.

I can use a little help. I am getting the following error when testing a new device I just setup in Geofency app for Hubitat.

Here is how I have my device setup:

I tested my URL ( https://cloud.hubitat.com/api/XXXXXXXXX/apps/1168/location/Mike?access_token=XXXXXXXXX) and got this:

["Yep, this is the right URL, just put it into Geofency Web Hook, set to POST and do a test. Make sure your Geofency location name matches the device location and user (Mike) configured in the preferences"]

Here is my config for the location I am setting up.

and the webhook config too:

Any insights on what I am doing incorrectly or how I can fix this?

Shortly after making my post looking for help I figured out what my issue was. I went back into the device I created and retyped in both the location and name and hit save. When doing so, I noticed the "Current States" section for the device updated and displayed both a "region" value and a "user" value. It's strange that didn't take the first time when I created the device.

I hope this helps others who might be having the same issues I did.
