I have an alert that emails us if an Item goes offline by setting an expiry metadata for 12 hr. and sending a refresh command to the Items in the group every 11 hrs. It works in some cases but other times it doesn’t. So I created a test rule that sends an email if an Item does not change over a giv…

Check out this thread on how to handle groups in Blockly. [image] Group-Handling with blockly Scripts & Rules Hi, i want to write a rule which sends me a message if batteries of my actors are low. I have a group item which contains all Battery-Low items. Wi…

Well that was pretty far into teh weeds for me. I have simplified this script for testing and out of that other thread, came up with this but it’s giving me an error that it’s failing to execute action 2: [image] I thought maybe it was because I wasn’t actually getting the state of the member fir…

[image] fullmoonguru: so I tried this but got the same result: You’ll notice in the accepted solution in the linked thread that they assign the state of the member item to a variable first, before testing it.

Yeah I saw that but that’s where I kind of got lost. I’m not familiar with how that is accomplished. Also, it looks like the state of the battery levels in that example is mapped to an ON/OFF state. I assume that above a certain level they are on and then off below that level. That won’t work for me…

With this I get the log entry even if I change the state of an item in the group during the minute: [image] ng)

I checked again and it works, the problem is that persistence takes almost 40 seconds to store the values, see my logfile 2022-03-29 21:51:17.347 [INFO ] [org.openhab.rule.AATest ] - Testrule Started 2022-03-29 21:51:17.476 [INFO ] [org.openhab.rule.AATest ] - Reklame not c…

Roland Mayr, this is working for me. Thanks!

Actually this isn’t working for me. I believe the problem is that this is looking for a change of state of the item. In this case the items in question are temp & humidity sensors so I’m looking for a change in the number or value but I don’t see a block for that? I want this block, but to have “Nu…

[image] fullmoonguru: I want this block, but to have “Number” or “value” in place of “state”: A value is the state of a Number item.
