@Alonzo By the way, the polling I added is for every 5 minutes. I could add 1 minute but SmartThings has rate limits against device handler’s execution time and discourages frequent polling especially when doing it the way that I did it. I’ve been polling the last couple of days at 5 minutes and it feels good enough for me anyway.
We can actually get away from polling if we want by having the OG send an update to the SmartThings hub but it would require a firmware change and I’m just too lazy to try to get the firmware compiling again. Maybe if you bug Ray or Jeff they’ll add it. It’s already very similar to the IFTTT and Blynk integrations.
