Bluetooth, BLE Beacons, Access components output

Can you please show how to take the input from a sensor (bluetooth in this case) and then use it in an action.

We are making an app for a museum where each artwork has a BLE beacon with a UUID.
When the UUID is detected it is fed into the app and matched to an artwork in the database where more information will be displayed.

Check this example bluetooth_action.pma (8.3 KB)

When a device is detected, its name is set to the “new device” widget. Then you can check the name and take action using the text check condition.

Run this example in Flipabit Companion app for Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.flipabit.companion

Check it out for your Bluetooth devices. If everything is ok, I will send you an example of how to link it to the database.

Hi Michael, i am interested in this example of how to link it to the database, can you please send me the link in PM if that is ok.

Thanks

Have you checked this example bluetooth_action.pma? Do you get the device name?

Dear Michael,

I was just searching for some help on how to include the bluetooth component and came across this, I downloaded the pma file and ran it in flipabit. My laptop running this had its bluetooth turned on. I then turned on my bluetooth on my phone, but the app on the laptop did not detect anything.

Is there an action that I need to add into the pma file?

I am trying to build something that detects nearby bluetooth devices, any help will be appreciated.

Thanks and God bless!
