List of all opened doors

[kevinB]

Hello,

I am trying to create a piston that will list out all of the doors that are opened. I having issues storing a list of all the doors that are opened and using the list to send out a sms of all the device names. Below is what i currently have.

Thanks,
Keivn

See if you can follow the example here… the key is “save matching device”

Monitor Switch/Contact Sensors Status - need help

Define device allLights (all your lights here) device lightsOn (empty) device allDoors (all your contacts) device openDoors (empty) string message (empty) Every 12 hours If mode is away Then If any of allLights are on Save matching device list to lightsOn Then Set variable message = "The {lightsOn} are on." End if If any of allContacts are open Save matching device list to openDoors Then Set variable message = "{message} The {openDoors} are open.” End if End if End every

I saw that one, but the problem that I ran into was that I only wanted to have the piston run when I used the the external http request (IFTTT). The only way that I found I could use the the matching function was if I used an if statement and that cause it to send me an sms message every time a door opened.

Thanks,
Kevin

Change the subscription method of the piston to never subscribe. You can find this option by click on the name of the piston in the editor window. Then select the cog and find the subscription policy. Change that to never and you are set.

Setting subscription method of the piston to never subscribe worked perfect.

Thanks
