it did not work

rule “Buttons Call”
when
Member of Buttons changed from OFF to ON
then
logInfo(‘INFO’, triggeringItem)

output log:

21:34:43.961 [ERROR] [untime.internal.engine.RuleEngineImpl] - Rule ‘Buttons Call’: An error occurred during the script execution: Could not invoke method: org.eclipse.smarthome.model.script.actions.LogAction.logInfo(java.lang.String,java.lang.String,java.lang.Object[]) on instance: null

Well, it’s an Item. What property of it are you interested in? I suppose it would be the name here?

logInfo("INFO", "Triggered by " + triggeringItem.name)
