In case anyone finds this useful, I have managed to get it working using:
URL: https://<specific server>.shelly.cloud/device/relay/control/
Body: turn=on&channel=0&id=<OID>&auth_key=<long key>
I can now turn on distant navigation lights via a satellite text message! Very happy!
I am trying to use IFTTT to turn on the relay on a Shelly1 via a webhook integration through the cloud connection. The trigger is from a satellite issued text message, but that's another story!!
The Shelly is registered, works locally, and remotely via the IOS app.
I have the auth key and the URL. I can trigger the IFTTT applet without problem, but I cannot get it to turn on the Shelly. Depending on what params I use, I either get a 404, a 400, or the applet runs apparently successfully, but nothing happens.
I have tried many combinations, combed the web and used the documentation, but nothing works.
My questions are:
Is the URL:
https://<specific server>.shelly.cloud/
or
https://<specific server>.shelly.cloud/device/relay/control/
In the body of the webhook, I am using:
turn=on&id=<full OID>&auth_key=<long auth key from settings>
Do I need to add 'channel=x' If so, what channel do I use? Do I need to configure the channel name on the Shelly or does it default to '0'?
For the ID, so I use the full 48 bit OID in hex, or do I use the last 6 hex chars? (I assume I use hex and not the decimal equivalent?)
Am I missing any other detail? I have tried many combinations, but nothing has worked. I will put a trace on the LAN to at least see if a packet is arriving, but since it's all SSL encrypted, I won't be able to decode.
Any help much appreciated!!!
Got it! Thank you again. I was hoping I could use the Shelly to directly and simply monitor the pump runs, but I can find an additional relay to use.
Thank you for the fast reply! I'm sure you are correct, but please would you help me understand why?
Here's the "schematic".
I have tried to do "this" without success and it's frustrating the hell out of me!
I have a 120v water circulating pump that is activated by a thermostat and relay. I tested connecting L to SW on the Shelly before installing and all worked as expected.
When the thermostat relay activates it provides 120V to the pump, so I simply took a pigtail from the relay to the SW on the shelly. The thermostat relay activates, the pump runs, the SW lead goes high, but the Shelly does not recognize it and I can't figure it out.
Clearly the pump has a voltage drop across it, but it looks like the correct voltage on the SW on the Shelly.
What AM I missing/being stupid about?
(Btw - I tried with and without detached button type with the same results. I have 6 other Shellies which are working perfectly, and I'm sure it's not a Shelly issue per se, it's me!!!)
