No idea what a webcore piston is - a description of it would help us help you - but a script has to be called by something, where an automation will start when the trigger is met

There are three sections to an automation:

  • trigger: When any one of these becomes true the automation starts processing. Only one trigger is ever responsible for starting an automation, if you make a condition that checks for more than one having started the automation then the condition can never be true.
  • condition: These are checked after a trigger starts the processing, and must be true for the automation to continue.
  • action: This is the part that does something, and can also include further conditions.

Thanks for replying, a piston in is basically a script in webcore, webcore is an automation tool for smartthings but anyway thats another topic😅 what i’m trying to do is trigger an automation that has different conditions by clicking a url and passing arguments through the url i.e

Click URL which will run a script or automation and this url will have different arguments like AC = ON or Lights = OFF, etc

Then because you clicked the URL the script will be triggered and has to check if AC == ON

If AC == ON
Then
Turn on compressor
Turn on fan
Set to 60f

If AC = OFF
Then
Turn OFF compressor
Turn fan OFF

If Lights == ON
Turn on Downlights
Turn on wall lights

Etc..

The problem is that my trigger is a webhooks url but then in the conditions part there is no option to select a variable or an argument such as AC == On
