<![CDATA[Need Advice on Setting Up Custom Commands for Multiple Devices]]>Hello there,

I am fairly new to TRIGGERcmd and have been experimenting with setting up commands across multiple devices in my home network. I have had some success with basic commands on a single machine; but now I am looking to expand and manage commands across multiple devices, and I am a little stuck.

Installed TRIGGERcmd on my Windows PC and successfully set up a couple of simple commands. Linked my account and tested triggering those commands from the web interface and mobile app it works great.

Recently installed TRIGGERcmd on a Raspberry Pi to see if I could control it alongside my PC.

When I add commands on the Raspberry Pi, they don’t seem to sync properly with my account. Is there something specific I need to configure to manage commands on multiple devices?

Can I group commands by device or category in the interface to make it easier to find and organize them? For example, having a PC group and a Raspberry Pi group.

Also, I have gone through this post; https://www.triggercmd.com/forum/topic/2407/uipath-server-to-send-commands-to-multiple-pcs which definitely helped me out a lot.

Is there a way to assign a custom trigger phrase to differentiate between devices when using voice assistants like Alexa or Google Assistant?

Thanks in advance for your help and assistance.

Did you use these instructions when you setup your Raspberry Pi?

If you install the background service with this command:

/usr/share/triggercmdagent/app/src/installdaemon.sh

... it runs as root, and reads /root/.TRIGGERcmdData/commands.json, and it will only sync your background commands (ground = background) not foreground commands.

If you're editing your /home/pi/.TRIGGERcmdData/commands.json that could be the problem.

Please show me the output of this command: systemctl status triggercmdagent
I'd like to confirm it's running.

Also, do you see the your Raspberry Pi listed on your "Your Computers" page? If not, maybe it didn't create a computer because you're not subscribed. You can only have one computer if you're not subscribed.
