      @sfmclaugh said in Looking for Smart Plugs that have "Toggle" in Alexa routines:

      Want to control my lights w/flic2 plugged into smart plugs using one-button press. No clue what to buy. Current plugs only have "On" and "Off". Any tips?

      Is that an Alexa routines thing or a device thing? My Leviton smart plugs have a "toggle" to control them via Matter, but the routines in Alexa offer only on, off, and brightness. I suppose you could use multiple actions in your Flic Hub configuration for that button- use Matter to do the desired toggle, then an Alexa routine to control the other actions you wish this routine to perform?

      Will a FLIC hub ever support third-party "controllers"?

      Well, I'm learning more now! Leviton did tell me that yes, in fact, their 4 device switch/controller advertises itself and functions as a "light" endpoint, and also 3 "Generic Switch" endpoints. So my hope here is that I would be able to add my 3 "Generic" switches to my Flic Hub, and then control my other matter lights/outlets/etc. with the switch, without having to add another Matter controller to the mix.

      Is this in the future for my FLIC hub??

      @sgemmen Thanks for this, finally got around to setting it up. It wasn't working at first but realised I needed to add the two helpers (boolean and number) for the targets of the service.

      Now I need to work on using it to adjust all the lights in a room while keeping the relative brightness of them the same.

      EDIT: Found this add-on which seems to work - https://community.home-assistant.io/t/relative-brightness-light-group/695450 - brightness changes are a bit jerky (not sure if this related to flic, the add-on, or something else) but it does the job for now.

      @Emil This is getting ridiculous. The problem still has not been resolved and your support email team are NOT replying me.

      If this product DOES NOT WORK OVERSEAS the. you should not be promoting it outside of the regions without proper testing.

      This is not a cheap product and have been patiently waiting for the team to work with me to get this working for a year now. If there is NO INTENTION for this to work outside of the US via Alexa then this should be highlighted or else this is FALSE MARKETING.

      To all users considering buying this for use (at least in Japan). This product DOES NOT WORK with Alexa.

      @buckyswider Hi @Emil ! So I installed that beta Matter code on my Leviton plugs and switches...and VIOLA! They are now all advertising the proper tcp service all the time. (At least for the first 24 hours or so). So it seems like we are good. Presumably now the FLIC hub will never show these as "offline" again. Thanks for your counseling!

      I do have another Matter related question that came up dealing with Leviton support. But I don't want to be guilty of "thread drift", so I'll start a new thread.

      Thanks again!

      @pico We currently use QuickJS and it seems like that js engine does not support that Intl feature.

      We might add the feature to set time zone, it can be useful for a few other purposes as well, e.g. in timestamp header for our Internet Request action. But right now I suggest to use the workaround I suggested.

      @djadin14 maybe you got a defect unit. You should contact support at https://flic.io/support and see if you are eligible for a replacement.

      @kerry-thacher Hi!

      Unfortunately, no. At least not from what we have found.

      You can use the "alternative keymap" in the Universal Keyboard action to prevent the on-screen keyboard from hiding while the Flic is connected, however, this also limits what we can do with keyboard commands.

      (Note that you need to "Forget" the Flic from iOS Bluetooth device list if you change the keymap for it to have effect).

      So Apple requires the device to identify as a keyboard to be able to do certain things, like trigger system wide keyboard commands (which is what this video suggests as a trigger for Shortcuts), and this enforces the behaviour that the on screen keyboard disappears.

      Sorry about this, it would certainly be a neat feature to be able to trigger iOS Shortcuts without affecting the on screen keyboard.

      @j that is the simplest way to get automatic access to your flows. You can probably set up your manual web hooks if you want, using the http request action, but you need to manually enter the url.

      @Emil I believe the groups that you speak of are the lower g groups. Yes, they are dynamic and can change fairly easily (too easily imo) and I think that's why Sonos now has Groups (upper G). In the Sonos app you can create a Group, give it a name, and select the speakers/rooms that you want assigned to that Group. Then when you go to play music, instead of selecting specific speaker/rooms you can select the Group. For example, I have groups named Inside and Outside. The speaker/rooms in those Groups remain the same regardless of how I might dynamically change them throughout the day. But sometimes I might only want music in the Office or Den, which I might dynamically connect as a group. So it seems the question is whether or not Sonos exposes these Groups in their API? And can you send a play command to a Group? Or simply a "player"? I don't know.

      @beachb_sl Hey, curious if you could describe in more detail the type of light/color feedback that you're looking for?

      My buttons do have visual feedback. If I click a button that has not been paired the light shows red. If I click a button that has been paired but is not within range of my hub the light shows as yellow/orange. And when the button successfully passes along the click action it blinks green.

      @buckyswider @Emil Agree, would be nice if there was a for the hubs to synchronize the configurations across a single account.
