Not All Devices Appear When Creating Piston


#1

How do I get things such as simulated switches and button or even a momentary button tile to appear as a device that I can use within a piston?

I can see things listed under “My Devices” in the SmartThings UI, but not all of them appear in the list of devices when creating a piston.

Another example device type is MyQ Garage Door Opener-NoSensor.

Ultimately what I am trying to do is create a virtual (fake) button that when pressed, it turns off a bunch of my devices. I was looking to make a piston that checked for when said fake button was pressed to do this. I’d like to then be able to trigger this using Google Home, but that’s not step one here.

Any and all insight would be greatly appreciated.

Go back to ST and open webCoRE app and add those new devices.
