HI, try looks at this repo. I just discover it.

I think I found simple workaround.

In Tuya IoT platform you create virtual device - let’s call it “Doorbell virtual device”. Such device will be visible both in Tuya app and in HA via Tuya integration. Then in Tuya app you create automation that whenever the real-one doorbell is triggered then “Doorbell virtual device” should be turned ON, wait 3s, turn OFF. This way you have virtual device in HA which reacts to real doorbell and in HA you can create whatever automations you want regarding this doorbell (like notifications, turning ON lights, etc.).

What type of virtual device will be suitable for this purpose?

6

Any device - doesn’t really matter. I created virtual socket. This way when real doorbell is triggered this virtual socket turns ON for 3 seconds. That’s all I need to let HA knows that someone is ringing the door.

Thanks will give it a try with a socket. Tried with a button device but that had no option to be controlled via the app automation.

Maybe I’m wrong but button is not the best idea because button is not something that can be triggered from HA or Tuya. It has to be physically triggered and reports that state to Tuya. What you want is something that can be triggered by Tuya automation so socket there is.

Yep, you’re correct. Tried with a random socket and it worked fine. Thanks a lot for the tip. :slight_smile:
