Hi
I have setup domoticz to run behind a reverse proxy and followed this guide
https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/WebServer_Proxy
I have setup nginx as the guide and also added my proxys ip to trusted networks.
I can access domoticz from everywhere and I have to enter credentials and OTP to login. This works great.
But I want to do a JSON call to toggle a switch from remote.
I paste this command in safari to test it when I on 4G
https://user:password@domain/json.htm?t ... cmd=Toggle
but then I get 401 Unauthorized
I have added the device in "Set devices" under user, and the user have user rights.
I get this in my logs
Code: Select all

Some browsers do not support user:password in an url. So you have to test this with tools like curl or postman

Is there a way to use the API with POST or GET with headers and body instead of having the username and password in the URL? I'm using HTTPS

I tried with
https://reqbin.com/post-online
I used this post:
Code: Select all
POST /json.htm HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Basic [Base64 encoded uername:password]
Host: [domain]
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 88
{
"type": "command",
"param": "switchlight",
"idx": 775,
"switchcmd": "Toggle"
}
but I get this in domoticz log:
Code: Select all
[WebServer] Deprecated RType () for API request. Call ignored, please use correct API Command! (192.168.x.x)

Better try the html version. But I am not sure it will work with this application. From what remote application do you want to send the JSON command in the end?

I have tested with some different online json post tester and it seems that when the content is in this form it works:
Code: Select all
type=command¶m=switchlight&idx=775&switchcmd=Toggle
but when it is json formatted like this it does not work
Code: Select all
{"type":"command","param":"switchlight","idx":"775","switchcmd":"Toggle"}
Is this something that can be fixed?

In the app you cannot use as URL the complete URL (so empty body in the app)?
Code: Select all
https://yourdomain/json.htm?type=command¶m=switchlight&idx=775&switchcmd=Toggle

That worked when I added
Code: Select all
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
in header.
Thank you

But when I try to change a selector switch I get this error
Code: Select all
{
"message" : "Error sending switch command, check device/hardware (idx=193) !",
"status" : "ERROR",
"title" : "SwitchLight"
}

I think so, this i the command I ran:
Code: Select all
/json.htm?type=command¶m=switchlight&idx=193&switchcmd=Set%20Level&level=40

From a browser it works? Level 40 is a valid level number?

From a browser it worked. But from the logs in Domoticz it lead me to try this from the app instead of last command
Code: Select all
/json.htm?type=command¶m=switchlight&idx=193&switchcmd=Set Level&level=40
a space between "Set Level" instead of %20 and now it works
Thank you for your help.
