I know I must be missing something obvious here, but I'm hoping to get a single rule, for example 'Open Door', to use the pushover API to alert me when any of a large groups of door sensors are opened.
Using the following simple rule I can achieve getting the alert if just the front door is opened, but if I expand the condition to include more than just the single sensor on the front door, I don't get any pushover events for any of the doors:
I must be missing something, since certainly I wouldn't need 15 rules for 15 individual doors or windows to achieve this. I would instead like to have one rule that lets me know when any of 4 doors have opened, and another single rule that tells me when any of 10 windows have opened, etc.
You are correct, you wouldn't. But, when using RM, you do have to define all conditions you want to monitor.
Example
Conditions: Door 1 open, Door 2 open, Door 3 open, Door 4 open, window 1 open, window 2 open, etc.
Define rule: Doors 1-4 , windows 1-10 any open
Actions for True: Notify Pushover '%device% %value% %time% %date%
And as @njanda posted, there is a great app for that.
@jamesjasonw If you decide to load the parent and child app for "check open windows and doors" then you will need to load the parent app as a new app BUT before you save it, you need to comment out , put this // in front of the first word on line 58. Then you can save the parent and then load and save the child app and it will work. I just had to do this.
@jamesjasonw I followed what Andy (Cobra) said and he first said to comment out line 51 but that still caused an error. So I saw line 58 and it had a reference to commenting that line if the cobra container was not used.
My question is....are you getting it to talk or send a pushover when a window is already open or is opened.
I am not getting any reaction from anything I try.
Hey @razorwing, I started to follow the Cobra advice and did get the app loaded, but didn't follow through with trying to get a workflow going.
The advice from @bjcowles actually got me what I needed primarily soI've stopped short of working more on Cobra until I need it for additional functionality.
@jamesjasonw I will have to wait for @Cobra to answer. I have tried the apps with and without the container and I still can't get any response from speech or pushover.
