How this automation works

Automatically announce and share updates when your Flic button is pressed. When the selected Flic is clicked, this Applet sends announcements using Webhooks, posts to Slack, sends an SMS, and updates your Abode system mode. Perfect for coordinating check-ins, alerts, or automation triggers across your smart setup. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint.
