ok, based on your current configuration. You would need an extra SmartApp to act as a bridge between the sensors (which are installed and use their own handlers) and the Edge driver of “Virtual Thermostat”. This way, you would: Create subscriptions to the temperatureMeasurement capability of those devices Send the new value to “Virtual Thermostat” from there. There are other options to achieve the same functionality like: Adapting Mariano’s idea Instead of creating an Edge driver, create a SmartApp (or SmartApp Connector) where you can control all the automations you mentioned. This option would be like an all-in-one. Use a bridge device, like an ESP which would get the device’s status and send updates to “Virtual Thermostat”. This sample would help you get started: SampleDrivers/lig…

At that time this was not possible without creating SmartApp.
