How to include Sensor Name in a Text Message

I have a smart app that texts me when my flood sensors detects moisture. The trouble is I am trying to include the sensor name in the text message. Anyone know how to do it easily by including a variable in the custom text message string??

It would normally be written within the app to ‘replace’ the variable with the actual device name

Which app are you using for the text messages?

I use webCoRE to do this for my leak sensors :slight_smile:

Just use a Smart Home Monitor Leak alert. I bet it tells you which sensor triggered the alarm in its message. I know it does for my Left a Door Open alert in SHM.

Unfortunately the Smart Home Monitor Leak does not.

I am using the Smart Things mobile app and specifically a SmartApp that detects a leak from the 6 sensors.
