Is it possible to have an automation (not Node Red) that has a condition (someone is home) and then two actions but if the condition is not true (someone away) then only one of the actions is triggered?

 

Thanks.




 I'm supposed to respect my elders, but it's getting harder and harder for me to find one now.

I use groups

 

presence is performed on users being connected or disconnected from WiFi

 

groups.yaml

 

 
any_alarm_users_home:
 
# Will report 'Home' if any user Home, away if all users Away
 
name: "Any Alarm Users Home"
 
all: false
