So I have a hub in the house and a second hub in a barn (all under the same account); I have to do this because of the distance between the two. I have a button (from SmartThings) that is registered in the house. I’d like to program the button to be able to turn on lights in the barn (one press) a…

Just to follow-up so there’s a conclusion to this request… In the end I just removed the barn location (don’t recall if I did it on the app or in the SmartThings api) but this then deleted the hub, all the associated routines and all the devices in the barn. In hindsight this was a mistake as I ha…
