My powers strips have returned to normal & the automation appear to be able to be modified & run. Thank you Wayne. 

 

I'll monitor over the next 24 hours to make sure they all run. 

 

For others trying this, to confirm, the Firmware didn't report an update to download, so I suspect this was a server side change. 

 

Thanks for the quick response!

Hi everyone, we have released an update for this issue and the problem will be fixed automatically. Please check if the smart action function of your Kasa power strip is back to normal.

 

 

  @Wayne-TP It's working! Or at least no error messages when saving the 'smart action'. 

 

I'll reserve judgement until tonight when all the lights turn on and off as desired.

 

Thank you all for your reassuring comments and for the update, however that occurred.

 

It want just me then!

Hi I can now successfully create Shortcuts or Automations , but I still cannot use Shortcuts or Automation to control the HS300 or KP303.

 

error message:

  @Raccoon330 A bit over the top - but I deleted everything including my account and started again!

 

Have you done a hard reset of the power strip? I did it twice to be absolutely sure, typical me! Be sure to remove any previous reference to the power strip before attempting to add it to the app.

 

I also cleared the app cache and data. I didn't bother with any renaming (left it as plugs 1-3) until it was working properly.

 

Hope this helps.

I didn't do anything... I just took a nap and now everything works fine

 

Hopefully that's the end of it.

I wish everything worked like that! Hope the angst is over!
