Device Reset Cheat Sheet for SmartThings Community

Hey everyone! I wanted to share something that might be super helpful for those of you who have accidentally deleted your entire ‘location’ in SmartThings, like I did recently. It was a bit of a nightmare, but I managed to rebuild everything and learned a lot along the way!

I created a cheat sheet that includes factory reset, inclusion, and exclusion steps for all my devices. It’s been a lifesaver for me, and I hope it can help someone else too!

Here’s a quick overview of what’s included:

  • Factory Reset: Learn how to completely reset your devices to their default settings.
  • Inclusion: Steps to add devices back to your SmartThings setup.
  • Exclusion: Instructions for removing devices if they’re causing issues.

I’ve organized it in a simple spreadsheet format, making it easy to reference. If you’re interested, feel free to check it out and let me know if you find it useful!

Happy automating! :slight_smile:

P.S. If you have any tips or tricks for dealing with device resets, I’d love to hear them!
