How this automation works

Automatically pause your sump watering schedule and notify your team when a Hubitat device turns on. This Applet runs whenever the selected Hubitat device is switched on and sends a web request before posting a message in Google Chat. Perfect for monitoring water levels or automating system alerts across connected home and work environments. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
