Question

So i recently bought actiontiles now i have more time to get it all working how i want. I want some routines/scenes/automations added as tiles to my home screen, So i have some scenes made up which i understand we cant link into action tiles due to samsung not letting us is that right? I installed the classic app but the "routines" tab seems to be missing  What are peoples workarounds for this? I could create a virtual switch, link the scene to that and do it that way but i would prefer a button action rather than a on/off switch. Is there a virtual button? I couldnt see one in IDE Thanks

Answer 1

You can execute a scene from ActionTiles if you want. One way I've used is to define a shortcut with the URL: javascript:$. ajax({type: 'POST', url: '<SCENE ID>/execute', headers: { 'Authorization': 'Bearer <PERSONAL ACCESS TOKEN>'}}); The easiest way to get the <SCENE ID> manually is to view your location in the IDE (account. smartthings. com) and 'List Scenes'. To get the <PERSONAL ACCESS TOKEN> go to account. smartthings. com/tokens and generate a token with suitable scenes scope.
