Setting expire on a switch

  • Platform information:
    • Hardware: Tangent PC
    • OS: Windows 2012r2
    • Java Runtime Environment: newest
    • openHAB version:2.

Trying to add the expires option to a switch. I see examples of for to do it in the config files, but I dont know how to do it in paperui or habmin. I dont see the thing in the things file, its empty.

I know this is probably something simple. Sorry for the noob question.

Thanks!

You can’t. Expire binding is a 1.x binding and must therefore be configured through text item files.
You need to delete your PaperUI configured item and then set it up via text file (both parts, the 2.x binding part and the 1.x expire binding part). As you said you already found a couple of solutions for that in this forum.

Have fun.
