Automations 2.0 : slack access and failure to understand

Automation Inspirations

Hello,

I accessed the app with Automation 2.0.

  1. I was asked to access Slack, but my email was rejected.

So, if a moderator could explain to me how to access it, because many of the translations in French on the application are incorrect.

  1. I have an automation for the light in my dressing room.

Three opening sensors control an electrical outlet that manages a light.

As soon as a sensor opens, the light turns on. Perfect.

However, when it comes to turning them off, the new version 2.0 poses a big problem.

If I want the three sensors to detect that they are all in the closed position in order to turn off the lights, this is automatically done in the “When” function.

In “IF,” there is no closed position, only the action of closing.

Except that to have parallel functions in “When,” you can only do it in sequence with delays between actions, which doesn’t work for me at all.

It is impossible to have linked functions at the same time.

So I don’t understand how to do what I did with my automation 1.0 to ensure that when the three sensors are in the closed position, it turns off with 2.0.

Thank you

To turn off the light when all three are closed, the configuration in 2.0 should be:

When（Any triggered）
A close
B close
C close

IF（All met ）
A is closed
B is closed
C is closed

Then
Turn off light

Hey Jeremy, a lot of people had trouble with initially accessing the 2.0 slack channel. I had to manually add a good portion of them.

Thank you for your help.

In your configuration, do I need to close all three doors at the same time?

I’ll try it tonight, but I find it complicated when the “WHEN” function with all doors closed simultaneously would have been much simpler.

Hello, if it doesn’t work then you will have to add a 5 second delay to each When command (click the three dots and select the delay).
Explanation, at the moment of closing in the IF condition the door is open, so we delay the activation in When for 5 seconds (we give a head start for IF commands).
And so I launched my working automations from 1.0 to 2.0.
I think you understood my opinion.
