Domoticz

Hi, I'm trying to get my dummy tempsensor shown in Google Home. I've added 'TypeControl: TempSensor' in the description of the device but GH keeps showing the device as a generic sensor without any value. When I ask GH what the temperature is, it reports the correct value. It's just that the value isn't shown in GH visually. Am I missing something or is this how it's supposed to be?

Hi testing controlicz instead of ittt for my 100-200 devices.
I am very impressed by controlicz and got the main part working.

Last part is to get switches in de right device type in google home.
At the moment they are recognized as a lamp and goeS off with lamps off.

So i added to my light/switch in the description IN DOMOTICZ:
TypeControl: Outlet and even tried TypeControl: Switch

After that i
rebooted domoticz,
i did a voice sync command ,
i removed the room and attached theze devices again,
but still a light in goolge home!

In Controlicz the LIGHT IS changed to a switch or outlet, but Google Home does nothing, any ideaS?

I finally setup Controlicz with Domotitcz. No idea why i never did this before. I can use my Android watch to turn on the lights with my voice. How cool is that. I'm happily paing the subcription since yesterday. It's very well priced (compared to e.g. Home Assistant Cloud).

However, the temperature sensors don't work in Google Home. I do see the correct value and sensor type in Controlicz, but in Google Home they show up as unavailable. Note that it's Google Home on my phone. I don't have a Google Home device (a mini is on its way now though, so that my kids also can control the lights with their voice).

Does anyone recognize this?

Btw, I did change a few lights to switches by adding "TypeControl: Switch" in the description. Works as expected for me in Google Home. They show as switch now.

This setup has stopped working for me.
When I'm testing in the Controlicz controlpanel I get incorrect password.
I have a bit odd setup with a HAproxy in front of my domoticz that do all the ssl offloading

I see the access call is sent having Authorization: Basic Y29udHJvbGljejpoaHN6akjhsdkjahsdjklahsdlkjh= in the header.
I decoded the key and I see it's the username and password that I have setup.

Has the API changed with the beta version so Controlicz don't work anymore?

I'm running
Version: 2022.2 (build 14964)
Build Hash: f0537d52b
Compile Date: 2023-01-16 08:44:04
dzVents Version: 3.1.8
Python Version: 3.7.3 (default, Oct 31 2022, 14:04:00) [GCC 8.3.0]

Change login to basic-auth and it should work. You should be aware I’m end-of-lifeing Controlicz on December 31st. Keeping up with the various changes to domoticz/google/Alexa is becoming too much. Controlicz works with current stable Domoticz

Okay. Hmm, you mean this ?

I enabled it and tried again and still get the same error.
Don't see any in the log.

O well I understand, thanks for keeping the service up.
I was looking on the other Google option that you run local on your device. Didn't get so far it started to work.
I was hoping it was a easy fix for Controlicz.


Edit: It's working now thanks.

Hi all,

I have been reading a lot of posts, but dont see the awnser to my question.

I have 1 temperature sensor setup that works when I use voicecontrol, but in the Home app is shows a humidity indicator (that shows 0), is it possible to make this show the temperature? In Controlicz it shows a as type Temp...

I have a similar setup in which one device is both temperature and humidity sensor. I ended up splitting the device into two dummy devices for temperature and humidity, and a script that updates them whenever the main device is updatet. Then you can link the dummy device(s) to Controlicz.

My sensor is only temprature and is already a Dummy The data goes to Google, but in the Home app (and other devices with a display) it only shows a not functioning humidity dail

Hi all - a quick note to say Controlicz may have a stay of execution. I've implemented basic-auth (as per Domoticz API docs), and am looking at how to manage new API changes for stable 2023.2 and onwards (whilst managing backward-compatilbity for some time).
Let me know if this is useful or not

Hi Madgeni, so is it normal it does'nt work since yesterday ?
I have made a new monthly subscribtion (not may usual plan) to test but no change.
Regards
Eric (account cavabiensp...........)

it should be fine - either PM me here or via the support page of Controlicz and i'll get it working

Nick, thanks for all the years of keeping this up and especially for your quick support at any time.
I've moved to a local Alexa-Node-Red integration for the few things I'm actually using.

To Madgeni
Thanx, i m not at home to test but my girlfriend told me it seems not to work... Will try at distance maybe this evening.
Regards
Eric

Hi Madgeni
Tried to send you a PM but seems to get stuck in my outbox and cannot find Controlicz support page
Since yesterday integration with Alexa stopped working and when trying to login to controliz webpage, I get a message saying user not found. I checked and the mail is indeed the correct on which I have always used.

thanks for having a look (PM me for my login since I seem to have problems PMing you myself)

Thanks for keep it running

same problem here.

i just send them a email

Hi all - for those that weren't aware, i've decided to keep Controlicz running. I've made changes to it to allow for the newer Domoticz versions (aligned changes to auth and API calls).
If you've lost access, it's highly likely it's due to an annual subscription expiring. I stopped them this year, so that people didn't pay for a service which was going to no longer be running. It's likely you had some free usage of Controlicz before i enforce expiration.
You will need to create a new account and subscribe monthly for now.

so my user is lost and I have to create another user?

any help ?
after i made the same user, whit the same pwd, now the alexa still not working
