      Hi!

      I just bought a Homey Pro and are trying to set up my Flic2 buttons to trigger Homey Flows.

      However, when I select Homey Action (and successfully logging in) in the Flic App, I get to this screen where I assume my flows should be showing up:

      Am I missing any step in the setup or there is something wrong with the integration?

      Thanks!

        I am using the flic buttons + hub with http requests.
        So you can start the flow with a http request trigger of homey logic.
        This works very well, skipping the flic homey app and has a much, much better performance and works even if your internet connection is down.
        You just have to configure a static IP for Homey to do that. Why sending a www request around the globe for triggering your light 2m away from the button?
        Edit: works as well with advanced flows

          The reason that some flows don't show up in the Flic app is that they are advanced flows.

          Only standart flows can be triggered from a flic button.

            @Emil Ok, I get it now! It seems that the Homey integration doesn't support starting Advanced Flows and instead only works with Standard Flows.

            I can live with that, as I can start an advance flow from standard one, but it would great if the integration could support them natively!

            Thanks for your help!

                @Emil I have this feeling that I'm missing a very basic piece of information here, but don't know which one.

                I haven't done any flow triggered with "This Flow is started". The ones I want to trigger have a "Start" trigger. I created this sample flow, but still it doesn't show up in the Flic app:

                  @gnoain In the Homey app, what's the trigger condition for the Flow? For me I just verified it works e.g. when "This Flow is started" is selected.

                    @Emil there's no such thing as a stupid question here 😅

                    I do have a good bunch of flows created in the Homey app and I use the Flic Hub.

                      @gnoain Maybe a stupid question, but I assume you already created your Flows in the Homey app first?

                      Do you use the Flic hub or the iOS app directly?
