I have a Sage Doorbell sensor. In RM I can select that as a button. But in my own app it won't show up as a button in preferences. Using this:
input "doorBellButton", "capability.doubleTapableButton", required: true, multiple: false, title: "DoorBell Button"
Are you using the built-in driver? It's only a pushableButton
.
For some reason I was thinking all the buttons were the same. But that worked. Thanks.

Thank you for your post - it has informed me of a home automation device I did not know existed!!
Great device you can buy for cheap on eBay. I’ve had one for years using the inbuilt driver and have Alexa announce a ring at either of my 2 doorbells. Only issue with it is no battery reporting so I converted mine to USB power. Last picture is the Sage.
I forgot all about that thing having a battery. It’s been installed for over a year. Still working. So kinda forget all about it.
If I remember correctly when the battery starts getting depleted mine would randomly trigger itself.
Just an FYI in case someone has a similar occurrence.
What driver worked for youo?
‘SAGE Doorbell Sensor’. I think it’s a built in driver.
Yes it's built-in, I use the same driver, ‘SAGE Doorbell Sensor’.
