Strategy for handling multiple instances of the same automation

You can decide what to do if another automation instance is started while another instance of the same automation is already in progress. For example an automation that listens to the motion sensor change, waits 5 minutes and then turns off the light can use the Restart option to extend the time waiting with every motion sensor detection.

Possible options:

  • Parallel - Start a new automation instance in parallel with other instances of this automation that are still running.
  • One At a Time - Do not start a new automation instance when a previous one is still running.
  • Restart - Stop currently running automation instance and start a new one.
