How to cancel routine action when on holidays

Flemo — Tue, 30 Jul 2024 23:03:38 GMT

I have many routines that turn on and of air conditioners using Genio remotes, based on times of day etc.

When I go away on holidays I want to shut down these devices or routines to the air conditioner doesn't come on.

In reality, in need to deactivate or activate routines from home and away routines.

Any ideas.

Hi, there no way to include the holiday in a routine, I should use a device like a variable using that you can turn on / off according your location

If you use the google home script editor at home.google.com to create your automations, you can include conditional statements in your routine. There are two buttons on the left side of the page, one for your cameras and the other for your automations. You'll have to recreate your automations here as you won't be able to edit any automations that were created in the home app.

The condition type that you'll be looking for would be home.state.HomePresence.
