    @tamorgen I can assure you that OWM does work very well with MSR. I am not using the reactor.yaml config, however. I call to OWM with a ruleset that populates multiple variables. I do this for OWN, Apple Sky, and Ambient (from my own wx station's API.)

    Just tested this out on Chrome and the window disappears once the mouse moves away from the entity, have you tried a different browser perhaps?

    Yeah, I usually pay attention to the green text when looking for true conditions. The red x's look too much like a web error icon so didn't even think about looking at a true condition to see what it looked like.

    This warning can be ignored for HTTP Request actions only. It should be heeded for all other types. I will silence the notice on the next build.

    So, I have found my missing parameters! They appeared following a reactor update. Perhaps next time I add new vera devices, I should stop reactor and re-start it after I have added the new devices and things have settled down. Anyhow, thanks again for your assitance Patrick.

    Hi @toggledbits !! After your class in January, I started using Dynamic Group Controller to manage devices that have no changes after a period to alert me of an eventual problem (48 hours for one group and 7 days for another). "dgc_lastupdate_48h": name: DGC Last Update Up 48 hours select: - include_controller: - hubitat - exclude_entity: - "hubitat>54" - "hubitat>257" - "hubitat>56" filter_expression: > entity.lastupdate < (time()-172800000) "dgc_lastupdate_7d": name: DGC Last Update Up 7 days select: - include_entity: - "hubitat>107" - "hubitat>1569" - "hubitat>483" filter_expression: > entity.lastupdate < (time()-604800000) It works and helped a lot, but as you already said, it can fail because a simple name update or reset of the HE/MSR can update everything and not indicate failures. Even updating the battery does not mean that the device is working. It can send a signal, but having no action does not help to identify the failure. So I don't know if I could include in the Thanksgiving wishlist maybe something like Last Action, where it would store the date and time of when the device performs an action, i.e., the primary attribute that triggers a Trigger, for example. Sorry to bother you with this subject again, but with a very large number of devices that I already have, it is becoming increasingly difficult to identify failures, a device that stops working, and then impacts the entire automation. Thanks.

    @toggledbits I wasn't sure at the time of the OP post that it was a legit bug and not just... me.

    @toggledbits said in Create Expression to call out Entity ID of Tripped Binary Sensor: You can't do it in x_hass_system.call_service (specifically and uniquely) because the data is an object field in that action, and the substitution doesn't work in object types, only in strings. This restriction has been lifted in build 22251. The data will now be stored as a string rather than an object, so that substitution can occur. This requires that any use of call_service be edited, so that the stored data is updated to the new form. You'll get alerts for actions that need to be edited. See the announcement for build 22251 for more info.

    @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.

    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.
