Hello,
I am new to HA and would like to create an automation with my Harmony hub.
I hava an entity remote.harmony_hub which has 2 attributes I would like to compare: current_activity and previous_activity
I would like to trigger an automation when current_activity != previous_activity ; but I cannot figure out how to do that.
Basically I would like to do something like this:
if
current activity is not equal to previous activity:
then
if 'previous activity' is not 'empty' (meaning everything was off)
if 'previous activity' is 'xyz'
perform actions for ending xyz ->
if 'previous activity' is 'xyz2'
perform actions for ending xyz2
if 'current activity' is not 'empty' (meaning everything is off)
if 'current activity' is 'xyz'
perform actions for starting xyz
if 'current activity' is 'xyz2'
perform actions for starting xyz2
Can all of this be done with an automation that checks for ‘if current activity is not equal to previous activity’ and then call a script where I do some further tests and enable/disable lights, power outlets etc?
