Device Capabilities

Starting from version 12.2.0, Homey Pro (Early) 2023 will shift its approach to favour custom capabilities over system capabilities, aligning with the behaviour already seen in Homey Pro 2016-2019.

Currently, when a custom capability on Homey Pro (Early) 2023 shares an ID with a system capability, system Flow cards are generated for that device. However, with the upcoming change, these Flow cards will no longer be available.

To ensure that existing Flows continue to work seamlessly, apps that use system IDs for custom capabilities will need to update their drivers. To avoid breaking Flow cards make sure to add a flow.compose.json to the effected Drivers containing the Flow cards with the same Flow IDs.

The capability IDs listed below are currently used in various apps as custom capabilities. Each file contains the Flow card ID's for that capability. By copying these Flow card ID's and adding them to your drivers flow.compose.json all Flows should keep running.
