variables
#1

1) Give a description of the problem
I can’t access data from the device handler

2) What is the expected behaviour?
Access data from my device handler

3) What is happening/not happening?
I don’t know how to access the data

**4) Post a Green Snapshot of the piston![image|45x37]
I have no code yet

5) Attach logs after turning logging level to Full
Here is the data from live logging:
7:35:36 PM: info [DTH] parse() - returning result=[[name:lock, value:unlocked, isStateChange:true, descriptionText:Unlocked by “Sue”, data:[codeId:1, usedCode:1, codeName:Sue, method:keypad, lockName:Front Door], linkText:Front Door, displayed:true]]

If a solution is found for your question then please mark the post as the solution.

#2

Which data exactly are you after?

An example is if you’re interested in descriptionText. In an Expression field you can use [device name: descriptionText]

#3

In the case of the lock event I want to know if the lock was locked manually, from and application or from the screen. In the case of an unlocking event, I want to know how the door was unlocked. If was unlocked by a code, I want to know the code and the user name associated with the code. Otherwise I want to know if it was unlocked manually or via the app.

#4

Is there a way to access a variable that I see defined in the log?

#5

If it’s listed in the device attributes then there’s a good chance you can access it… in the format I showed up top: [deviceName:attribute]

OK! So it has to be in the attribute list for me to access it. That’s too bad. I guess I have to modify the device handler to create the additional attributes.

#7

Have you investigated the contents of the $args variable? If the device handler adds ‘data’ to an event, I believe it ends up in there e.g. $args.usedCode. It’ll probably be device handler dependent to some degree.

Just to add that used.Code would probably be the index and not the actual code used.
