Ecobee and fan switch

[Joe_Mcnelly]

Is there a simple way to turn my ceiling fan on when ecobee calls for heat? Seems so basic and nothing in smartthings store. Closest I got was the too cold app but it only turns on a device if temp drops below a specified temperature. Not the greatest when ecobee changes temps throughout the day

Even ifttt doesn’t have an ecobee trigger for call for heat

You should check out webCore. It do what you want and so much more…

FAQ: What is WebCoRE? (And what was CoRE?)

CoRE (now WebCore) is a very powerful community – created rules engine for SmartThings. It allows you to set up stacked conditionals like “If A then B but only while C and not if D.” Setting it up can be quite complex, but there are many community members who will be glad to help you. For example, here is a piston that one member created to notify him if the dog had already been fed twice that day and he picked up the dog bowl for a third time. He needed this because he has a large family and people didn’t always remember whose turn it was to feed the dog. :dog::blush: [image] The original version of CoRE Has now been replaced by a new version, WebCoRE, which moves the data entry to a web interface. This allows for flexibility and an architecture that requires more memory than is av…

Authorizing the community section isn’t lit up so kind of stuck. Maybe because I’m still waiting to receive my account from the community.

Hi, with My ecobee Device, you have the simple ecobeeStateTriggerHA smartapp, which allows you to turn on/off switch(es) based on the thermostatOperatingState (heating, cooling, fan only, idle).

For more details on all use cases available:

Hi, [image] To whom it may concern, This thread is about My Ecobee device, and it’s dedicated to the several hundred of ecobee users (more than 1500 contributors and counting) who have been using it for their day to day HA interaction through SmartThings for more than 3 years now. I ask for a contribution as it took me a lot of hard work to create this reliable DTH (no disconnects) To download the code, go to www.ecomatiqhomes.com/store New Releases New version (v5.9.9s) with new replay logic to play “failed” commands due to ecobee or ST outages over a hour New version (v5.9.9t) with improved replay logic to play “failed” commands due to ecobee or ST outages New version (v5.9.9y) with Summary Voice Reports The code has been designed to work with an ecosystem of smartapps acting…

Thanks I’ll check it out, new to this and just setting up webcore. Is this for we core?

My ecobee Device (custom Device Type Handler) exposes all thermostat capabilities & commands for webCoRE/CoRE/SmartRules.

The ecobeeStateTriggerHA is a simple smartapp for your simple use case.

There are many other smartapps available with My ecobee Device for your use cases. So, you don’t need to use a rule engine like WebCoRE for your simple use cases.

My Ecobee device is only available at my store:

I mean for webcore install sorry

Did you publish all 4 of the webcore apps in IDE and enable OAuth for the webcore one?

Then look for Webcore under Automation: SmartApps not in the marketplace.

Then sign up for an account at https://community.webcore.co/ There are lots of great example pistons to be found and the folks over there will help you with anything needed in regards to webcore.
