Controlicz - Domoticz to Google Home/Assistant integration Topic is solved

[maxcross]

Hello Madgeni,

Could you help me with the list of my devices? In the Google Assistant, I see my "motion sensor" with the icon as lamp, I don't understand why.

1. In the Domoticz it is indicated as "motion sensor" but not like "on/off" or "dimmer".
2. And one more question. I don't see my lamp, but in the Domoticz it is indicated as "dimmer" and has description "Controlicz:Desk lamp"

Thanks in advance

sorry, and 3rd question, Google Assistant answer me "temperature is 23 and is off", why?

[Madgeni]

the 'is off' is a Google bug

Can i ask a favour of all of you? Controlicz is finally available in the directory - can you leave me a review please?

I would gladly do that, but I am (still) not able to signup on the website...

I have tried it on 3 different computers, in Chrome, in Internet Explorere, in Microsoft Edge, on my mobile phone, but after I fill in my details on the signup form, nothing happens. I am only presented an empty signup form again. I receive no e-mail, and I am not able to login with the data I submitted.

Could you please check the website? Thanks!

[edit]
Something happened, I just received a message that my account is created, only thing is that I can not sign in on the site, and I tried this e-mail address a couple of times, so I don't know the password.
But I will try some passwords

I just did that for you, through the front end - no idea why you couldn't do it.

Hmm, really strange, just tried again this morning without success..
But thanks for creating it for me!

I am starting to feel really dumb...
I have an account now, and I changed the settings.
When I press the "Test Domoticz" button, it states it is unable to connect, but when I go to the URL and port I provided, and use the login details I provided, I am able to log in.

When I try to connect the account in the Google Home app, I get a message that Google needs full access to my account, I press allow, then in the end I get a message that it could not connect, and that I need to check the connection..

BTW, can I change the password you set for me?

Ok, is this working for you now? Looks like it's run some discoveries.

Password resets for Controlicz - for now you'll have to do it via "Forgotten your Password?"

Password reset worked, thanks..

I have attached some screenshots of the results I get when testing in my profile, and adding it in the Home app.

please remove "https:/" from your hostname in Controlicz

I honestly thought i'd fixed that in the back end, but you just need to supply host name/external IP

Ah, okay..
Will do that when your website works again, I now get 404 errors on the login screen..

[Madgeni]

Are you hammering f5??! It's back.

Edit: For the wider community - Controlicz as a service to you wasn't down, rather the website was whilst I made a couple of changes. It was down for roughly 5 minutes.

Sorry, no F5ing from my side.. guess I just coincidentally tried it when the site was down..

Sorry for all the questions from my side, but I'm almost there.. I have removed the https:// part and have successfully added it to Home now.. But... When I query something, I get the error shown in my screenshot.. Do you have any idea how to resolve that?

I already tried to unlink and link again.

Thanks a lot for the support so far!

[edit]
Some additional info:
I can query the status of a light; when I ask "is the big light on?" it will give me the current status of the light. If I turn it in Domoticz, the status will change. So the connection is there. For some reason it can not turn lights on or off though...

[Madgeni]

and those devices are discovered?

[TheFes]

and those devices are discovered?

Yep, they are discovered, and assigned to rooms
Tried some other commands, and setting them to a colour does seem to work:

Me: Set the big light to blue
Assistant: OK, changing the Big Light to blue.

I can see in Domoticz that it is turned on, and it seems to be blue. But since I am not at home, I can not really check.

Does the account you've provided have permissions to control those devices? I'm seeing:
"<html><head><title>Forbidden</title></head><body><h1>403 Forbidden</h1></body></html>"

Thanks a lot! I did not notice you could create a profile with viewer rights only.. That was indeed the problem.
Strange though that I could change colours, but anyway, it works now!

I will send you some beer money

[Madgeni]

Phew! Just glad we got there in the end
