@Russ is there no way to install it system wide or have it so existing triggers work no matter the user?
I have a PC in kiosk mode and want to still be able to trigger commands for sleep, wake and reboot. If it helps, I have Anydesk installed on my user account which still runs in the background while in kiosk mode.
@Russ Does this keep the same URLs for triggering? If not, is that possible?
For instance, I have a few people with OBS configurations that send triggers to a specific PC. If the PC had to be replaced it would be ideal to use the same bookmark URLs on the new device.
@345676543 there are a few ways of doing this. I assume you’re sitting at your pc when you want to do this.
1 - The simplest and easiest method doesn’t involve triggercmd. It would be to download the Android subsystem or bluestacks and have the Google home app right on your pc.
2 - use triggercmd with a browser automation bot on home.google.com. This can only run routines.
3 - use ifttt but with the smart plug brand since google home doesn’t work with ifttt. Recipe would be triggercmd to Wemo or Smarthings instead of google home.
You would create commands that don’t really do anything besides let ifttt know they’ve been fired off.
Just noticed the trigger URL changes every time I view the Bookmark.
Was this always the case?
Do the old ones ever expire?
Is there a way to set it so it never changes?
Are you asking for a way to fire off triggers from your phone?
You can create a panel of the specific triggers then add a shortcut to panel’s url to your phone’s Home Screen
Or
Install ifttt on your phone and fire them off some other way like sms.
We deploy many attended machines and occasionally need to update the scripts or add new ones. Using Anydesk means logging into each pc one at a time and manually updating the script.
Process going forward. We just started doing this and so far so good.
I'm sure there's a way to create a new Trigger using AutoIt or similar but for now this will save us a ton of time.
@Russ It's a swiss army knife on it's own. Paired with TriggerCMD it's a Bazooka.
@Russ was just messing with it again. It’s not your URL. Something in my OBS setting causing it to work only once.
Sorry to make you look into it. I should’ve done more testing before reaching out.
@Smart-Communities The shortened URL works perfectly when used directly. When we used it with the Advanced Scene Switcher plugin for OBS the results were mixed. We would see OBS indicate it was firing off but the command wouldn't run.
@Russ awesome! Will give it a try asap.
Thank you!
I may have asked this once but can't recall. Is there a way to shorten the URLs or is there such a thing as a http post redirect?
@Zubairsk What do you do with this machine? What gen is your Ryzen?
@Russ Apologies Russ. Not sure why I thought that. Maybe because it was a default command when installing. Anyway sorry to waste your time.
@Russ downloaded newest and same issue. To be clear, the background agent is automatically installed when TriggerCMD is installed. That correct?
@Russ neither of those worked but here's what did.
I ran "update agent" which stated Background service must be reinstalled once update is complete. Upon reinstalling background service after the update I was able to see the background command.
My triggercmdagentsetup is on a thumbdrive. Is that bound to a specific version of triggercmd?
