Hi,
I am trying to update a door contact dummy switch through JSON but can't seem to find the correct format. I have tried using switch commands but receive an error.
Can anyone help me to learn the correct command?
Thanks
Fred

Maybe it helps to show us what command you have used & what error you get?

You'll need the udevice command, see wiki.

I've read the wiki but there is no trace of contacts.
I've tried the udevice (/json.htm?type=command¶m=udevice&idx=65&nvalue=0&Status=Open) and even if the result is
Code: Select all
{
"status" : "OK",
"title" : "Update Device"
}
the device is not updated, it's always "Closed"
This is the device:
Code: Select all
{
"ActTime" : 1485549591,
"ServerTime" : "2017-01-27 21:39:51",
"Sunrise" : "07:51",

Try this (it works for me):
/json.htm?type=command¶m=switchlight&idx=13&switchcmd=On
/json.htm?type=command¶m=switchlight&idx=13&switchcmd=Off

Did you get this working with "open" and "closed"? I don't want it to say "On" or "Off" because it is a contact, not really a switch.
