    Hi!

    I just bought a Homey Pro and are trying to set up my Flic2 buttons to trigger Homey Flows.

    However, when I select Homey Action (and successfully logging in) in the Flic App, I get to this screen where I assume my flows should be showing up:

    Am I missing any step in the setup or there is something wrong with the integration?

    Thanks!

      I am using the flic buttons + hub with http requests.
      So you can start the flow with a http request trigger of homey logic.
      This works very well, skipping the flic homey app and has a much, much better performance and works even if your internet connection is down.
      You just have to configure a static IP for Homey to do that. Why sending a www request around the globe for triggering your light 2m away from the button?
      Edit: works as well with advanced flows

        @Emil

        The reason that some flows don't show up in the Flic app is that they are advanced flows.

        Only standart flows can be triggered from a flic button.

          @Emil Ok, I get it now! It seems that the Homey integration doesn't support starting Advanced Flows and instead only works with Standard Flows.

          I can live with that, as I can start an advance flow from standard one, but it would great if the integration could support them natively!

          Thanks for your help!

              @Emil I have this feeling that I'm missing a very basic piece of information here, but don't know which one.

              I haven't done any flow triggered with "This Flow is started". The ones I want to trigger have a "Start" trigger. I created this sample flow, but still it doesn't show up in the Flic app:

                @gnoain In the Homey app, what's the trigger condition for the Flow? For me I just verified it works e.g. when "This Flow is started" is selected.

                  @Emil there's no such thing as a stupid question here 😅

                  I do have a good bunch of flows created in the Homey app and I use the Flic Hub.

                    @gnoain Maybe a stupid question, but I assume you already created your Flows in the Homey app first?

                    Do you use the Flic hub or the iOS app directly?
