Domoticz

Hello,

IFTTT just introduced a new channel called Maker. This channel is used send HTTP request to..... Domoticz

Link : http://blog.ifttt.com/post/121786069098 ... er-channel

Example : Recipe to trigger Domoticz when a SMS is received

THIS part : If SMS is received (for example)
THAT part : Add "Maker" and configure it that way :
- URL : <domoticz public IP>:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=<id>&nvalue=0&svalue={{ContactName}}
- Method : GET
- Content-Type : text/plain
- Body : Nothing

Make sure to create your virtual device before doing this

This post seems to have been strangely ignored when it actually gives very interesting information.

I am trying however to use it, but without much success. One of my problems is related with authentication. Domoticz API authentication was changed recently (viewtopic.php?f=31&t=8959) and, besides taking it out, there seems not to exist a way of making it work with IFTTT using Maker Channel. I tried also "Basic Auth", but without success

Anyone using authentication and IFTTT Maker Channel with success? If so can you give me some example, please, of how you are doing things?

This is a little bit out of the topic, but in Android phone I use AutomateIt to do local control for Domoticz. As my personal opinion, there is something fundamentally wrong in IFTTT user interface.
AutomateIt can also send URL GET. Latest application that I do was to get my tablet to send Telegram message into my phone via Telegram Bot when battery goes below 15%.
I used to use PushBullet but their current policy with payments and all put me away.

I made it work. It seems basically I was having a problem with the dynamic DNS.

Tested example for turning on a virtual switch: Please note that for using user/password you should set your authentication to "Basic-Auth".

Can you please share your ifttt-makers channel configuration?

i am interested what you put in the fields (URL, Method, Content Type, Body) to be able to control the virtual switch

I was looking for the same information, so here is something that is working for me.
Here is the view from Devices in Domoticz So for this dummy device i can turn in on from IFTTT like this:
URL:hxxp://user:[email protected]:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=66&nvalue=1&svalue=DummyTest
Method:GET
Content:Text/Plain
Body:(emty field)

I have some sun curtains that needs a level instead of 1 or 0 (on/off)
The URL looks like this for setting it at level 90:
hxxp://user:[email protected]:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=switchlight&idx=17&switchcmd=Set%20Level&level=90

Best Regards
