[solved] Time Trigger set dynamically

Post by AMChris » 11 Nov 2014 18:28

Is there a way to get a time trigger where I can
define the trigger time during runtime (and change it if necessary)?

The usecase I have is that a flow calculates a time when the sound profile should be set to a specific value.

I don't think it would be very smart to let the flow pause for several hours.
So the only alternative I see at the moment is to use a periodic timer and check whether the time is already reached.
This works, but a "dynamic time trigger" would be more efficient.

What do you think?

Thanks
Chris

"Global time/date" trigger allows using variables.
