Unable to Program Automations to close door in Smartthings #118

Closed LanesBrokenSki closed 3 years ago

LanesBrokenSki commented 3 years ago

There are only two options for the Garage door setting in Smartthings when programming an automation. Open and Closed. When selecting Closed, there is an error trying to save the automation.

Past automation that was setup has a "close" option that worked in the past. Door Automation

I still have all my garage automations set up in Smart Lighting for this reason and other weirdness.

One thing I will say is it doesn't hurt anything to send a "close" command to the door if the door is already closed. MyQ will receive the command, see that the door is already closed, and do nothing. That may simplify your rule in that you don't need ST to check if it's already closed or not.

try to use off, this what I used for Scene setup.

I get a Network Error message every time I try to Add this option (On, Garage door:Closed) on either an automation or a scene.

So in this case, I think what you need to do is simply make it turn the switch "off" and don't bother with setting door "closed." It's a bit awkward, but that should work.
