Switch on WallPlug from cloud server

[miloli 0]

Hello, I'm using Home Center 2 and would like to script my own remote server to control wall plugs. So using REST API to connect with my HC2 and change the state of a wall plug. I looked at manual and forum, but can't find a way to do it. Can anyone help me ? Cheers / Olive.

seems more like your looking to "hire" someone to write you script, then looking for help with an existing script.. dont hold your breath on your "request."

when i am looking to have custom script written, i hire @morpheus75 to assist me when i am looking for something a bit more tailor-made thats outside of my experience level.  his rates are very competitive and responds fast to any questions.

actually not. I have developers working on my server apps on AWS. They can request REST API from the HC2, if it was technically possible for everyone, and not only for selected partners like IFTT. The only option that I see if to set a VPN but this opens a lot more complexity. I don't understand Fibaro's strategy here of having REST API only for local network. It needs to be accessible from the cloud. Any thought anyone ?

NO.

if you open develop box in your browser - turning on/off is very easy... but. for calling you should 

1) logged in Fibaro "dom"

2) save session id (idk how it generated... cookie? idk!)

3) for calling - your should make a call via internal Fibaro proxy and pass api request as a query

 

POST

hc = serial NO

temp - as I said before temporary session id.

Nice one. It works with a little change in the end

[user]&hc=[serial]&temp=[temp-sessionid]&req=/api/callAction?deviceID=[deviceID]&name=turnOn

But this is not a stable and secure solution. The token will probably expire under 60min or so, hopefully.

 

Is there any official Fibaro support people who could advise us here ? I'm sure there is a oAuth API somewhere that could be requested, no ?

Temp token look like part of User Agent  

Well, I'd hate to guess and be wrong.. but Fibaro never open this secret  but otherwise you can send to Fibaro asking to sign NDA

So, nobody reversed how to get temp for now? Protocol for newProxyLite can solve many problems and close need of dyndns and insecure portforwarding.

 

For now: It begins on id.cloud.fibaro.com... We need post data username=$USERNAME, password=$PASSWORD to

 (don't see where to get and set csrf for now) then, if one have right PHPSESSID in cookies (yes, cookies) one can get user and temp (as tempKey) from
