REST API

[Relaxandbecool 1]

Is there documentation for the REST Api for this release of HC3? Some things work as per the HC2 documentation but much does not. Manuals.fibaro.com is not much help unless I missed something?

Yes, i feared this was the answer  so … doing a get of api/settings/info works …. But /devices returns a 200 code but an empty json object.

hmmm

Well we are a lot of people that use these apis daily and they work very well. It’s most likely that you don’t do the request correctly. You copy the curl example in the swagger api? Ex. you add the x-fibaro-version header?

Ah surely I am not doing this right, or my JSON decoder is not working. I am using pythonista to make the calls ….

 

so 

import requests
api_url="http://192.168.8.10/api/settings/info"
response=requests.get(api_url)
print(response)
print(response.json())
 

Works as expected but not

 

import requests
api_url="http://192.168.8.10/devices"
response=requests.get(api_url)
print(response)
print(response.json())

Note:

 

.../api/settings/info -> works

.../devices -> not good

 

See the inconsistency?

Try:

.../api/devices

Well indeed. I had tried that previously, but also did not work. However, I now see that the /api/devices needs some authentication, 401 code….. strange that in fact any random string produces a 200 response code and only a 501 if preceded by /api. That smells like a bug ….

Indeed adding HTTPBasicAuth to /api/devices does indeed now work. Many thanks!
