I can not figure out how to make a flow starting every two days at 3:00AM.
Some help please?

    If "time is 3:00 am"
    And "flow has not run in 47 hours" with the Candy-app would do it...

    This is not working because the flow is doing a reboot. After reboot candy is lost the last time used, value and is not able checking on this value anymore.
    Is there an other option to run this "Homey reset" flow every 2 days?

    Maybe make a Boolean with the Better Logic app?

    If homey started>set a timer for 48 hours. 
    If timer stops>reboot homey. 

    2 flows though.

    thanks.

    Both are nice options

    I would go with @Rocodamelshe. 
    I’m guessing letting homey do a countdown all the time isn’t helping it’s stability. 
    Assuming that’s why you want to reboot every two days

    This one never worked for me, does it work for u @Moek ?

    Indeed.
    Zigbee is not running after about 24 hours. Restarting every day worked. Now I will try to delay to two days.
    Because I want to reboot as less as needed

    Yes it does. i reboot every night and let homey send a notification as soon as homey has started. I’ll start up the comp and post a screenshot.

    After restart I do add about 5  minutes at the to do cards, to give Homey time to totally restart all services. With me it is working then
  • MoekMoek Member


    Not sure if " initiated" is the same card as " gestart" though.
  • MoekMoek Member
    Ah, you indeed probably ment the logging part <span>:smile:</span>

    is the  starting order in Apps. If Candy starts and triggers for simple Log and Pushover are started, it doesn't work.
    Add a build in Push Notification that always works ..... maybe a delay on the action works but tink you need a second flow that should be started with Delay.
  • RocodamelsheRocodamelshe Member
    Added a delay of 10 minutes like @canedje said and keep u posted
  • canedjecanedje Member
    I changed the flow a little bit using a counter instead of a boolean. Now I'm flexible to choose how many days it takes before reset Homey by checking on a higher number
  • RocodamelsheRocodamelshe Member
    Delay of 10 minutes did not do the trick.

    A pitty

    Delay of 10 minutes did not do the trick.i
    I didn't have time to test, but try this:
    Flow 1 Homey Restarted =>> Send Push to Mobile  + (Delay 10 min.) Trigger Flow2 
    Flow 2 Flow is triggered =>> al things that depend on other Apps.

    I Think that should work!
