Add capability so that ALL triggers are required to activate the automation
Add capability so that ALL triggers are required to activate the automation
When creating a new Automation, in the WHEN section, please can you add an option so that "All triggers are required to activate the automation".
Currently the app only shows the grey text "Any trigger will activate the automation" but what I'd like is the THEN action to happen WHEN condition 1 AND condition 2 are met. Currently the THEN action happens when 1 OR 2 are met.
For example, when I push a button AND a window is open, then play a sound on the smart hub.
Thank you!

I can now achieve the example from the original post using the Smart Actions 2.0 Beta. I wanted: "when I push a button AND a window is open, then play a sound on the smart hub." and that's now possible using the IF condition which the beta has added.
It's a bit odd that the WHEN condition still can't happen when ALL triggers met but the IF condition now can so combining the two makes my scenario work.

@MackFu Hey, can you share what Smart Actions 2.0 Beta is and how I can get it?

Unfortunately it's now closed, see here for more information https://community.tp-link.com/en/smart-home/stories/detail/502100.
I hope that a full release of the function won't be too far off.

This usage can be achieved by a Condition (If), which will be supported in the upcoming Smart Action 2.0. You can either choose to trigger the action when any of the conditions are met, or you can choose to trigger the action when all the conditions are met.
Stay tuned to the official release!

@Wayne-TP Also with smart actions 2, we can only set "all triggers" for the IF section and not for the actual trigger (the WHEN section). How can I configure the automation to activate when both triggers are true (e.g. I want to turn off the light when both added devices/phones leave a location. With the current behavior, when either one leaves automation is triggered). Other than that, Smart actions 2 are really cool 😎 Thanks!
