How To Work With Notification Area...

[Martin]

Are you executing the flow manually (menu->Execute)? In this case the variables pertaining to the notification are not shown since the actual notification trigger was not executing the flow.
Also the trigger won't execute the flow when the flow is enabled at the time when the sign-in notification is already displaying. The trigger will only fire/execute the flow at the moment when android posts the notification.

OK - now that makes sense! So how can you test 'correctly' without having to wait for a trigger then? I personally would have thought the manual execute would have been like a 'test' run - kicking it off looking for the true/false and evaluating everything....so it doesn't work like that then apparently. Changes my view on testing of course. Not upset - just curious if I'm testing incorrectly is all. I'll test and go from here based on this info

The best way to test is to find a way to make the system show the notification. Does turning wifi off and on work?

You could also modify the flow slightly when in testing mode: add a condition Notification on Statusbar displayed with the same filter like the trigger as the first condition in the flow. The condition will provide mostly the same variables like the trigger so you can manually execute the flow for testing purposes.

Thanks for the ideas/thoughts on testing. At this point, I do have it up and running and it's working well!! A bit more tweaking and it should be about perfect - but so far so good!

Thanks for all the help and input!!
