Making things happen by themselves (rules)

Help centre

When something changes, switch something else, or tell somebody.

  1. Open New rule. Start from a template - Follow, Alert on change, or Chain two devices - or build one from scratch.
  2. Under When, choose what starts it: a thing changing, a unit being offline for a while, or a time of day.
  3. Add conditions under And (all must hold) or Or (any may) if it should only act some of the time. This is optional.
  4. Under Then, add what it does: switch an output on or off, pulse it, or send an alert. Name it and press "Save rule".
  5. On Rules, "Test without acting" shows what a rule would do right now; nothing is switched, sent or scheduled by the test. Switch a rule off to pause it without deleting it.

A rule that cannot run - one naming a unit you no longer have, say - is marked "This rule cannot run" and says why.
