    Hey Patrick, now that I know I cannot use expressions in the data section of service calls

    This restriction has been lifted in build 22251.

    @toggledbits After I saw this post I tested the daytime version and it behaved as intended. Half the battle down, we'll test the other half this evening. Thanks for the guidance here, it's a different approach but I can def see places where it's useful.

    No, it's a limitation of the Synology container manager, apparently. It doesn't seem to apply updated values from the new image to existing containers. I'll make note of that on the next Reactor build (later today) as well. I've also updated the instructions to just eliminate the install scripts; they don't do anything meaningful (everything ZWaveJSController needs is already in the current Reactor environment).

    When Reactor 22248 comes out later today, you will not need to upgrade to it unless you feel a need to get the one major new feature (ability to "wait for completion" when a reaction runs another reaction). If you don't need it, don't bother. But if you do decide to upgrade, you will also need to upgrade your ZWaveJSController to its 22248 build as well.

    Good approach! Very easy to follow the logic here.

    Thanks for the additional information, that is certainly good to know about.

    You can set up groups in Reactor now and they will carry through to the dashboard. Check out the documentation for DynamicGroupController under ControllerConfiguration. If you're just cherry-picking entities for membership, all you need to do is list them in include_entity. No dynamic filter is needed, so you will effectively create a static group.

    @toggledbits thanks that works great (the workaround). One slight typo though, you have script instead of scene in the graphic.

    Sigh. So this is weird. I updated to the latest and no change.

    I then took your advice and just was manually changing the Value8 variable in Vera from alpha to beta. It still didn't help. I finally took the 600 second delay out and noted that the set/reset started working. Put the delay back and all is good (I think).

    I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks for sticking with me on this one.

    The issue isn't that CommFailure was 0 or 1, it was that it wasn't there at all. That suggests it may have existed at some point with value 1, then disappeared, leaving the attribute value on the MSR side stuck (because it had no variable from Vera to use to change it). It's possible the Vera device handler has a bug and instead of setting 0 when the device is configured, it sets it to blank, which as of a couple of firmware versions ago, deletes the variable rather than setting it to an empty value. Having now created it manually, if it later disappears, that would confirm this theory -- something in the firmware is removing for some reason (or worst case, there's user_data corruption). In any case, CommFailure should always exist for Z-Wave devices, so something isn't right there, but of course, no chance that it would be researched or fixed these days. The Vera firmware thread has been long dead, no updates have been published, and questions and requests are left unanswered; I have my doubts that anyone with the knowledge (and will) is still there. Everyone's busy filling the holes in the new firmware (now four years since the acquisition).

    Here is the crazy thing. The sensor values were stale, I changed a value in the rule and then saved it. Now there isn't an exclamation point and the sensor value is updating as well. Almost like it was stuck after the upgrade?

    @toggled-bits yes, you’re right regarding JSON. I was referring to the syntax to concatenate variables and constant text.
    I’m not a blue iris expert and I’ll prefer mqtt anytime, since the retry logic is attached to the qos, whereas you’ll need to write a while block to retry in case of error when using http requests.

    @christian_fabre said in Rule corruption after sudden power outage:

    Thank you for your reply
    My system is a Raspberry Pi4 4GB with a 120GB SSD from stock.
    Which is weird, I had the same problem twice following power outages.
    I'm going to power it through my inverter to prevent this from happening again.

    Just to be clear: exactly the same issue? Same rules?

    So the issue was using data and target all that was needed was the automation's entity ID. Should look something like this now:

    { "entity_id": [ "automation.bar_alarm_is_not_on_actionable_notifications" ] }
