Much appreciated. Some channels like to give an overview of things, which is totally fine of course. But my channel is more about showing examples of how to do things, to help people get stuck in and then explore themselves.
Yeah, i agree, it sure is! I considered comparing it to Home Assistant in this video, but it's kind of a different level and different audiences perhaps. It might be a good entry point for people getting into Home Automation though...before they discover the power of HA. 😄
I'm trying to write a script that from the one command it will trigger different actions depending on the time, but I don't think I can't have more than one set of conditions, flags them as duplicates. Is this a limitation of the google platform? Or a limitation of my piss poor coding skills?
Hey. Glad you're giving it a try! For multiple conditions you have to do it slightly differently. You need to define an "and" or "or" type and then have the conditions. Check this page out which has an example, see if it helps! support.google.com/googlenest/answer/13460475?sjid=7211457591631113832-EU#conditions&zippy=%2Cconditions%2Ccondition-operators
If you want different conditions and starters you need to go like this - starters: - type: Bla bla Condition: (If you need or want more than one condition you can go like following) Type: and/or/not - conditions: - starters: (This will be your second time probably so the second voice activated routine) - type: Bla bla And now you can do another conditions if you need or want to its like a second automation now
Hello there! Did you manage to figure out the issue? I just tried in the Android Google Home App and the suggestions pop up there. And on the web URL using Google Chrome, so I'm not sure why it isn't working for you. Perhaps you are using a different browser which doesn't support it. Or maybe you have a syntax error so it doesn't know what to suggest?
@@lets-automate I am using Chrome, I try chrome app on tablet first and then a I try Chrome web broser on the PC. I started write "device.status. .." but nothing, even there is some ctrl+spacebar suggestion command, but it says No suggedstion 😅😓
Triggers/events are dependant on conditions. If the condition is not met, the trigger is disabled. If a sensor has no triggers, it (should) be turned off.
I think for people who don't want to look after their own automation platform, it's worth keeping an eye on in the next couple of years. It's never going to be as good as something like Home Assistant though, as big companies tend to be quite slow to deliver new functionality.
Glad that see that someone showed a couple of examples.

Can't wait to invest time in learning to use this, come to rely on it, and then have Google cancel support in the near-future!
That is a risk, for sure!
Great!
Thanks.
Great video - I'm loving the new script editor
Its a great start but waaaaay behind what Home Assistant can do and at the rate that Google develop its going to be years before they catch up 😢

How do I get the starter to be me saying "let's review the day?"
Google made a solution for IFTTT going pay to play
Hi
Learning from pro's like you.
As for me its my first YMAL file editing.
Am on editing script for door/sensor. I get errors mostly in conditions.
I hope you get your conditions working!

And now you can do another conditions if you need or want to its like a second automation now
Can you use Gemini to code it for you?
Whats the trick? I cant see suggestions popup for commands when I click in row when I want place the command.😢

I need to look into this more! Thanks for sharing :)
