Hi, I am not a ST or Hubitat developer but have very simple custom apps on my ST installation. Now I am trying to move some simple smart apps from Smartthings hub to Hubitat. Obviously there are differences between Hubitat and ST implementation of HTTP requests. SO now I'm looking for the correc…

now, is it possible to add a custom device template ? I have a coffee machine device with several buttons for "americano", "capuccino" etc. how can I display these functions on the dashboard ? on the device itself, I can see the buttons but not on the dashboard.

I'm not sure what you mean with "device template," but if you mean on Dashboard, no. Hubitat Dashboard can only use the built-in templates, but one of those is the "Attribute" template, which can be used to display the current value of any device attribute (anything under "Current States" on the dev…

[image] bertabcd1234: one device with multiple buttons how can I add a virtual button device with multiple buttons ? actually I see a lot of button devices but which one is a multiple button and how can I present it on dashboard with multiple buttons ?

If you create a new virtual device, use the Virtual Button driver. Then, use the preference you'll see in that device to set the number of buttons. A Dashboard tile can only run a single button action, so if that part is where you're getting stuck, you'll need one tile per button number (or button d…

[image] kahn-hubitat: that said i still use it for my tesla dashboard as it makes the rule easier to write and i don't need 20 different virtual buttons. I didn't understand this (well maybe because English is not my native language) what do you use , and recommend to use ?

You can also use Tile Master 2 to create a custom tile that can handle multiple devices on one tile. One of my tiles has 3 locks on it and I can touch just one part of the tile to open or close a particular lock.

[image] bertabcd1234: would have to implement, at least, the "PushableButton" capability and then push() command and associated attribute well, this is a good solution without additional virtual devices. can I use one push() command and call several functions in my driver according to the bu…
