New Bookmark option for each trigger

Russ

Now you can trigger your commands without logging in - strait from an icon on your mobile desktop.

Click the red Bookmark button.
Add a Bookmark (aka Favorite), or select "Add to Home screen", or "Share..." to save the URL. Close the browser tab or navigate away before you test it.
Use the URL to trigger your commands quickly without logging in.

EDIT 11/7/18: Now you can &params=foo to the end of your bookmark URL to send foo as a parameter. This assumes you've enabled parameters on your command of course.

EDIT 2/26/20: Now you can scan the bookmark's QR code to run the command.

Just found this topic. I love this! The idea of me being away from my home and my trusted friend who is also my neighbor being able to turn my outside lights on/off and a few other things so easily is awesome! I suppose it would also only be right to share a link with my girlfriend to turn my outside lights on for her also. I suppose if relationship went south in a bad way I would just have to rebuild the trigger to remove her control?

Russ

@tim-s, that's right - you could even just change the trigger name and change it back, and it would invalidate the bookmark URL.

@Russ This is freaking awesome!!! I am using this with my Ringcentral Phone (and the RingCentral Automator add on) to mute my home stereo system (monoprice zone amp) when a call is connected. Aka mute the music when I am on a call.

I was looking for a more complex system to send or receive an http request and bam your bookmarks do this all along!! I never knew what they were for but now I need one and BAM!!

Thank you!! ALso thanks for the AI script generator

Hey @Nate-Hales, long time no see. I'm glad to see you're still finding ways to use TRIGGERcmd.

Nate Hales

@Russ Yes I actually believe I am one of the first novice people to use home automation Ringcentral smartthings Yealink phone alexa and trigger cmd to automate my home. I put all those things together so if someone googles Yealink and home automation they will find this post and know it is possible (and supper easy)

For me (since I use my computer and Triggercmd to control my monoprice zone amp) I only needed my Yealink VOIP Phone (that includes an Action URL page in the admin software) and your Trigger CMD Bookmark option .

I also used your (AI Tool .bat generator) that (Trigger CMD) fires off (on my computer to mute my stereo) when it receives a http request(with the link made from your Bookmark button) from my Yealink phone.

So when I get a phone call (or pick up the handset to make a call) on my Yealink T57W, it automatically mutes my stereo and then un-mutes when I end the call.
I can even have it turn my lights green so my kids know I am on a call (when they walk in after school (so they will be quiet and I can seem more professional)

Anyway I did not see any other ideas out there for my particular situation (and equipment) that did not involve custom code... and then I remembered Trigger CMD and eureka!!!

Just amazing what you have built here and it is good to be back

Russ

@Nate-Hales, that's a super creative idea. No pressure but I'd love to see you demo it in a YouTube video.
