Sitemap Weirdness

[KidSquid (The Squid)]

I have an item on a sitemap that reports the level of my son’s ipad battery level using the icloud binding.

When the sitemap loads, the value is correctly stated and then the value changes to a much lower value. If I refresh the browser, the correct level shows for a brief period of time and then reverts to the incorrect reading.

Any idea on what could be causing this?

Here’s a screencap:

The item is a number item.

Sitemap and item code, please?
Anything in the logs when that happens?

Nothing appears in the logs when it changes…

Item

Number ZiPadBattery "Battery Level [%.0f%%]"  <battery> { channel="icloud:device:zaneicloud:xxxxxxxbatteryLevel" } 

SiteMap (this is the first Frame of it - the item in question is #4)

Have you tried changing its place in the sitemap?
Or removing it from the sitemap and then adding it back in?

[KidSquid (The Squid)]

I did both…

I moved the item in question to a different position on the sitemap and it is now working as it should…the issue is now that the items that took it’s place in the sitemap is experiencing the same issue. The value is correct and then about 10 seconds later it changes.

I tried removing the item and then bringing it back with no success.

Any other ideas?

Next step:
Clear the cache

Any other ideas?

Is the item actually changing value (i.e. do you see it changing in events.log)? I doubt it, but best to confirm.

Not sure which browser you’re using. Did you try it in other browsers? Does the same behavior occur?

Can you bring up developer tools in the browser? On the network tab, do you see any network activity that would indicate state changes being sent from the OH host?

Be suspicious of the preceding Item in the sitemap, possibly includes control characters or something?

Yes - tried in multiple browsers on multiple machines…still see the same behavior

Yes I am seeing the following:

The first line is the correct value of the state, the second is the number it’s changing to

What do you see in events.log? Is the item changing state/value?

So, is it always the Item that follows HomeRoute_Data that is poorly, or always the fourth Item, or?

Nothing in the event log.
