Title: Security Alarm System API
Post by: baptist on August 13, 2014, 12:56:07 PM: Hi I'm trying to control the Security system by a WebServiceCallReceived...
http://192.168.1.10/api/HomeAutomation.HomeGenie.Automation/Control.On (http://192.168.1.10/api/HomeAutomation.HomeGenie.Automation/Control.On)

But I receive an error
{ 'ResponseValue' : 'ERROR: Array index is out of range. at HomeGenie.Automation.Scripting.ScriptingInstance+<RunCode>c__AnonStorey0.<>m__2 (System.Object args) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 ' }

I'm using tasker on my android, and by using the 'RESTask plugin' I was trying to create different actions based on GPS location.

/api/<domain>/<address>/<command>/<option_1>/.../<option_n>

so the program **address** is actually missing in the url you specified.
The correct call would be:

http://192.168.1.10/api/HomeAutomation.HomeGenie.Automation/90/Control.On (http://192.168.1.10/api/HomeAutomation.HomeGenie.Automation/90/Control.On)

Cheers,

Post by: nolio on August 31, 2014, 09:54:27 PM: Hi,
I want to do something like this :
Code: [Select]
/api/HomeAutomation.HomeGenie.Automation/90/Control.Level/To have the status of alarm : "On" or "Off".

But with this request HG don't answer anything like i do wrong command like this :
Code: [Select]
/api/HomeAutomation.HomeGenie.Automation/90/Control.aaa/
Perhaps all the "commands" are not available with API .... Is it ?
Or is there a way to do ?

Bye

cheers :)
