New to SharpTools – have setup a few test rules and they appear to be triggering twice…It’s almost as if SharpTools is seeing the event twice simultaneously and, hence, sending two notifications.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions to mitigate this?
Hi @CrazyCanadian, welcome to the community. Can you verify in the Rule Logs if the rule was actually executed twice and if they were triggered by the same event? See screenshots below for example.
If so, the next step would be checking the SmartThings IDE site, if the device generated the same event twice. Logging with your SmartThings account, select Location, and go to My Devices, find the specific device you are looking for, and tap “List Events”.
I remember I had ran into something similar in SmartThings, and had to delete and re-create the device in SmartThings to fix the duplicated event issue.
Thanks for the reply.
I checked on the SmartThings side and there’s only one event happening.

I hope that came out somewhat clearly…
