This was a valuable exercise as I was able to also set up UD Mobile for Geofence based on the occupancy nodes. seems like a cleaner and easier solution than configuring state variables. Thanks @Javiand @Geddy

OK! This explains it. I was certain I’d received notifications at some point regarding these programs being activated Never even occurred to me the term “switched” meant the physical action on the hardware.

So in the end it was a detail i had not picked up in my programming. Though i thought i had historically recieved notifications from every program, I now have to assume i was only getting a partial catchment. Maybe someone can explain why, but my programs set to trigger when "is switched on" did not trigger a notification, while my programs that were set to "status is on" successfully send a notification every time. Would love to know the difference. Thanks for all the help.

Thanks Javi. Really appreciate that you make yourself available as much as you do. It appears that maybe only the Notifications are failing to send when the programs have been triggered, though I will definitely look into Occupancy Node Server more. Is this a better approach then solely using UD mobile geofencing and state variables? Also wondering if you can possibly tell me if the old "Emails/Notifications" component in Admin Console still functions, or has it been replaced with Notification Center? When i run "test" i do receive the test sms, but none of my programs are sending notifications. Thanks

Greetings. Been awhile since i last dove into my Polisy/programming and currently feel very lost. Recently I noticed none of my geofence based programs and notifications were working. UD Mobile Home and neighborhood Geofence triggers a statevariable change which in turn acts as conditions for many programs within my home. Variables change, but programs or notifications are not triggered. Some time ago I carelessly installed the new notification center as well as the Occupancy Node server as I read it would help if multiple users were within the same home. The Occupancy Node server created nodes within Admin Console but for the life of my i can't figure how they would be associated with UD Mobile. Historical setup is to use "Emails/Notifications" with the recipients being my cell number and email. Feeling somewhat defeated as I'm not really sure where to look. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Other then going with HA so i have more device options in HomeKit, whats the benefit? Kinda seems overly complicated with all the entities

Wait a tick. It seems they have been disabled in Admin console. Enabling seems to have brought them back into my Polisy scenes. Strange

Ok. so i ended up running what i understand to be the full HA OS on my mac mini in virutalbox. Things seem pretty good, if not a tiny bit slow to respond. One odd thing i've just discovered is that any devices i expose to hoembridge are showing as not available in my Admin Console on Polisy. Red crossed circle. If this is part of the HA integration i have to say i am out.

Greetings I’m hoping to introduce Home assistant into my fairly extensive Insteon/polisy net worth. Originally planned to run it on my 2018 Mac mini, which connects wirelessly, but apparently it has to be hardwired. My next thought was to run it off my synology Nas through docker, but I thought I had read this would not allow add-ons. My whole focus is to get HomeKit interface access. Are you finding you’re able to introduce add-ons running it off the symbology Nas?

@Clive Alcock I'm realizing that I may have failed to offer clear details on what I was trouble shooting. Your solution definitely gave a line break for the email based alerts. My issue is with SMS alerts. The <br/> does not correct the jumbling of alert content within sms.

@Clive AlcockOk thanks. I'm slow to respond but will definitely try this. Michele had responded to a ticket i had submitted and informed me this was something that would be addressed in the next release.

No luck with the linebreak in html or txt.

Ok. Thanks Tried changing the heartbeat variable but after looking at the program details i think that takes 25 hours to trigger an alert

Other then triggering a sensor, is there a way to send tests?

Have been using the program set up that @belias created for about four years now. I can’t overstate my appreciation for the work that was put into this. Recently, my SMS alerts have been showing up unformatted, so it’s very difficult to see what alert is associated with which leak sensor. I’ve tried formatting the SMS message with colons or semicolons with no luck Wondering if anybody knows what punctuation is required in an sms to trigger a “return”? Thanks kindly
