How to have multiple actions on a soft trigger event?
Answered
Hello all,
I can't figure any workaround to achieve 2 or more action on a soft trigger event
If I create a 2nd soft trigger with same name and same icon, I will then have 2 icons on my layout instead of 2 actions on the same button.
Seems to be impossible by design?

Hi benoit lecomte,
Yes, this is the current design mechanism. You cannot assign multiple actions to one event rule.
However, you can easily achieve this using the Generic event, as illustrated in the following example:- Event 1: When a soft trigger occurs → Send an HTTP event (Generic event with a specific attribute) to the server itself.
- Events 2, 3, 4, and so on: When a generic event (with a specific attribute) is detected → Execute the required action.
For the specific format of the Generic event, I recommend referring to our API document for a detailed explanation.
Thank you.

Thanks Wendy I'm trying that.
My API calls are wokring from the API dev docs (testing box) but the exact same API request from VMS is not working.
I'm tried with https://127.0.0.1:7001 also with the local LAN and I even created a api user that I referenced in the http request credential boxes
Is it a limitation because I'm on free trial of the VMS or am I doing something wrong?

Hi benoit lecomte,
1. Please provide more details like:
- Your scenario
- API content that is used in the testing box
- API content that is used in VMS (A screenshot of Nx event rule will be helpful)2. There will be no difference no matter customer is using the trial license or not - actually no license is required for the feature. We only charge when the user wants to enable the recording or use the I/O module.
Thanks.
