I have been using smartthings for some time. Some months ago they renamed it to smartthings classic and created a new smartthings app. Recently I found that there was another location automatically created (I assume because of this renaming)
Casa Vimp = my original location where I have a smartthings Hub and all my automation
Home = automatically added and it has no smartthings hub assigned and no automation at all
1.- If I go to “home” location then click on add new thing it is asking me to add a Hub. Should I add to my “home” location the Hub that I already have in my other location (“casa VIMP”) ??
2.- Adding the same hub to both locations is safe? will it not spoil my automation in my “Casa VIMP” location ??
3.- Or is there a way to merge both locations ?? I want to do this because in the “Home” location I have a samsung tv “thing” that I have not been able to add it to my “Casa VIMP” location
this is common when switching to a Samsung login. First thing to check is login to the web IDE and see which location is set to default https://account.smartthings.com
yes I was able to make Casa VIMP my default location.
Now to add my TV you said that I should be able to move it in the new app, so what is the new app ? is it the one from my below screen shot or I just should go to the smartthings classic app and in the Casa VIMP location try again to find my TV as a thing ??
thanks a lot.
After moving it, now in the smartthings app is showing together with all my other automation in the correct location but in the smartthings classic is still showing in the previous incorrect location:
Samsung Appliance integration in Classic is a little different. I wouldn’t be surprised if you have that device in your new app twice now. I would stick with the new app for automations involving it.
I tried in the new smartthings app and I created an “if” --> “then” and in the “then” portion I want the TV to do something but this is grey off and unselectable. Do I have to do something to make it available ?
not sure it shows as disconnected as this morning in home I managed to turn it on with smartthings. Once back home later today will check, thanks for all the help given, is really appreciated
After turning on the tv it automatically reconected and managed to create automation in the new smartthings app but unfortunately options are very limited and not even channel change posibility.
