Hello @Lokkye!

I haven’t had time to test yet, but I was wondering — after the trigger fires, is the message put into a variable to run tests on it or simply injected into a device?

I filed a more general feature request along the same lines

> [@Avoir la possibilité de récupérer qui à déclencher la scène](https://community.gladysassistant.com/t/avoir-la-possibilite-de-recupere-qui-a-declancher-la-scene/8534?u=spenceur):

> En tant qu’utilisateur, Je veux pouvoir savoir quel device/condition à déclencher une scène, Afin de l’utiliser dans d’autres actions Ex : J’ai une scène ouverture de porte (avec le tag alarme star_struck) et lorsque une porte s’ouvre, je récupère l’état de toutes les portes et j’envoie un message pour me dire regarde l’état des portes. Moi ce que j’aurais voulu faire c’est simplement savoir quel porte déclenche la scène directement (c’est moins fastidieux que d’aller tout récupérer etc.) …

Hi @spenceur,

At the moment, the message content isn’t stored in a variable. But I think that’s doable.

Regarding the broader request, I can’t really answer you about feasibility — I’m not familiar enough with triggering scenes.

No worries, thanks @Lokkye  
I’ll wait for feedback from @pierre-gilles to see if he thinks this is doable 🙂

Everything is still doable 🙂
