Can anyone confirm if a door/window sensor be used as a starter? I'm hoping to have a starter be "did this door just fully close?"
For example, something like this:
- If the door sensor notes that the door is fully closed, and its after 8pm, then: turn off the lights in the house.
I'm looking at either the Eve Door and Windows sensor w/ Matter, or the Aqara door and window sensor p2 w/ Matter.
I've seen mixed reviews when searching elsewhere in regards to whether Google Home can use the opening/closing of a door as a routine starter, either natively in the app, or via the script editor.
Can anyone confirm?

I'm new to this but I the starters seem to operate on changes of state. So, I don't think what you've described would be possible. However, I think it can be accomplished with two routines.
1. Starter is: 8pm, condition: door is closed, action: turn off lights.
2. Starter: door closes, condition: 8pm or later, action: turn off lights.

Were you able to do this with the Aqara P2 Door and Window sensor?

I have the Aqara D/W sensor P2 and it would not complete the install process into Google Home, but, I added it via AEOTEC Smart Things Hub v3. It shows as "sensor" and not "door".
