Managing a group of devices

Hello,

In my case, I would like to be able to create a set of devices.

For example, I have a house with floors and I control my shutters via io-homecontrol.

I would like to be able to tell it via an action to open all the shutters on the floor and close those on the ground floor to 15%, for example.

Either this is done via an action to control a set of devices of the same type.
Or we have a way to add tags and be able to trigger these tags in the scenes (the tags would act as a relay with the devices and the linked integrations).

What do you think?

Hey @spenceur
that looks suspiciously like a scene in your story :thinking:
On my end, not for the shutters, I have a slider on my dashboard with which I set the number of hours for the pool filtration and then I click on a button to start the scene that takes over this timer.

Hello,

I think a scene is just a roundabout way of achieving this goal. It’s been just over a week since I’ve had the same thought as Spenceur: I would like to be able to add metadata to my rooms. Notably, the notion of a floor, which makes complete sense. This would especially allow, via the AI part, to simply say « open the shutters upstairs Â», « close the shutters downstairs Â».

Beyond the floor, it would also be great if a room could have other metadata. We could then imagine things like « close the street-side shutters and open those on the garden side Â». Or even « turn off all the bedrooms Â» and that kind of thing.

I think this would be a very useful feature.

a minimat I want something like that (open the shutters, close the shutters)
