How this automation works

Control your Leviton smart devices automatically when motion or contact is detected. This Applet runs when your SwitchBot contact sensor detects an open state, triggering your selected My Leviton device to toggle on or off. Perfect for automating lights or appliances when a door or window opens, enhancing security and convenience in your smart home.
