How to get current state of device for custom website Topic is solved

[LordMax]

Hi!

I am making a home controller where I want to have a small domoticz controller imlemented. I have a fully working domoticz server but I cannot figure out how to get the current state of a switch. How do I do that? Thanks beforehand!

Best regards Max

You can get the status of a domoticz device with a http Json API call. https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Domoticz_API/JSON_URL%27s

But as your question is a little bit vague for me you better explain in more detail what you want to achieve.
Perhaps a floorplan https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Floorplans
or the dashboard can also be good enough for you. https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Managing_ ... #Dashboard

Thanks! I was late editing this post but I managed to solve this myself but it via the wiki. I read the status from the json file and now it works!

Great, in your PM you asked for the security status. That you als get with a http API cal: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Domoticz_ ... rity_state

PS I do not answer donoticz related questions in PM as other people can not learn from it. Also there are no stupid questions so everything can be asked and answered on the forum

Ok! I wasnt sure if I could make a new post out of it, Ive posted a lot lately but I appriciate the help so much on this forum! . Now I am just trying to make a highcharts on my home controller from the /json.htm?idx=xxx&range=day&sensor=temp&type=graph JSON file. But I am having a hard time formatting the JSON file so that the graph looks like it does in domoticz. Any help would be very appriciated . Thanks beforehand!
