ST Routines Randomly Disappearing

Hi, @sdbg
Can you provide the following to check that new routine, please?

  1. Confirm the email account registered in the forum is the same one you use for SmartThings. If not, please share it with me over DM
  2. Enable support access to your account:
  1. Go to the SmartThings Web (my.smartthings.com)
  2. Log in to your Samsung Account
  3. Select Menu (⋮) and choose Settings
  4. Toggle on Account Data Access
  5. Select the time period and confirm - In this step, please select “Until turned off”, once the team finishes, we’ll let you know so you can disable it again.

See more information about this access here: https://support.smartthings.com/hc/en-us/articles/36170233944852-Enabling-Account-Data-Access-for-Support

  1. Share the name of the new routine.
  2. If different, share the name of the routines that have previously disappeared

Also, based on this, can you confirm if the routine worked normally until you noticed it failed and looked for it in the app?

@nayelyz any update? Should I just try to recreate it from memory? It was pretty complicated, and I’d prefer for it to be restored, with potentially other missing routines I may not know about.

Hi, @Wajo357
Sorry for the delay. I asked the engineering team about this since there are a few other tickets with similar descriptions. Once I get their feedback, I’ll let you know. I’ll keep pinging them

Add me to the list… I keep having my Good Morning routine disappear. So my alarm response goes off every morning. I recreated it twice now. It is very simple… if a certain time of day, a certain single device status, and in Night mode, fire, running a different routine. The one device it relies on is active and the logs show it has regular updates to the hub.

Posting mostly to follow along

Seeing this happen as well in the past 2 weeks. A routine that’s been untouched for a couple of years just disappeared. Added it back, gone the next day. Added again, then a different routine related to the same devices was gone. Seems to be stable right now.

Hi, @Stephen_Johnson, @derekwbeck

Have you checked if the routine appears in any of the following?

  1. The device’s details section, although it doesn’t appear in the Routine’s section
  2. The Advanced Users tool, in the “Rules” section.

Have you checked how many scenes+Routines you have created? We’ve seen this happening for users who have several Routines

It was nowhere to be found. I noticed the first one missing while researching why the lights the lights didn’t turn on when there was motion. Then after recreating that one, researching why they never turned off. The routine for both was there and working earlier in the day. Then gone, recreate, gone again later, repeat.

I have around 40 - 50 routines.

Hi, @Stephen_Johnson
Do you recall the date and time when this incident occurred?
If not, can you create it again? The engineering team can take a look, but they need the following information:

  1. Approximate date and time of when the routine disappeared
  2. Name of the routine
  3. Support access to your account:
