How to get room ID by room name?

[strips 4]

Hi,

 

Is this possible?

 

To get room ID by room name? I have a room called Livingroom with ID 6 and want to turn on all lights on/off in the room. I'm trying to have as little hard coding as possible.

Thanks, but how do I access the rooms API? Do I have to do a http get and parse the JSON?

Thanks,

 

I'll figure it out but good to get it confirmed.

 

I just wonder why these APIs are not exposed in LUA. Is the logic handled in a different layer?

 

For me it would be more natural to have it all in LUA and then expose these APIs by HTTP/JASON.

That is a Lua too, we don't want to double lua functions
