In this video, I will show you how to create a virtual switch in SmartThings. A virtual switch is not real but can be created with SmartThings and be very useful in automations. You can use virtual switches in many ways to make automations work that might not otherwise be possible.

I will show you a few examples in this video on how to use virtual switches and I will be using them in future videos to complete automations. It’s important that you know virtual switches exist and how to use them in your SmartThings set-up.
