I have a trigger based on a contact staying open for 60 seconds. I want to change that delay to be a global variable so I change it from a dashboard. I can't see a way to select a variable for the seconds. What trigger type do I need to use to set this up?
From what I can see, using a Hub Variable as the “stays” value is not an option that is available at this time.
Tagging @bravenel in case it might be an option for a future release.
Triggering the rule for the contact opening then using a Wait for door opened for a variable duration might be a viable work around.
That sounds like a good idea, but I cannot figure out how to actually implement. Here's what I have right now, but it just doesn't look right. I only want to actions to happen if the door stays open. This is one of those things that shouldn't be this hard. 
Any thoughts?
Use Wait for expression
Wait for Expression: (R)Back Door contact opened --> duration: DoorOpenWait(0:02:00)
