Vacation Help

Hello,

I was browsing the smart apps and no longer see the Vacation Director that ST at one time had.

Any way to get this back? Any guidance on how I can control my smart home while on vacation?

Thanks in advance!

Assuming you mean vacation lighting director, it was retired by ST.

The source code can still be installed manually on your hub if you’d like.

I think most people would use WebCoRE to get a similar kind of automation working now that vacation lighting director is unsupported.

You could probably use a piston created by someone else. The WebCoRE forum is the best place to ask about pistons that people have created to share with others.
