I would like to know if it is possible to integrate Nightscout with Homey Pro.

Adding a product link might be a good idea 😉  
And you can search the homey.app store with the 🔎 function

I have already searched in the apps, but there is nothing related to Nightscout, which is a website or program I use to record, view, and share my blood glucose values. I would like to integrate it into Homey to be able to create some automations.

After some searching, Nightscout appears to be open-source  
Basically one can install and run it on a local or internet server, or hire a running instance

> where any web-connected device can view the numbers

For a start accessing the data per IFTTT is possible, which is available to Homey:

Any luck? I’m not using Nightscout, only xdrip. Have been trying to send a webhook from xdrip to Homey using Tasker, but no success yet.

Yes, I was successful, with the help of chatgpt I managed to write a script and now every 5 minutes I can get some lights with the colors of the xdrip graph to know how my blood sugar is when I’m at home.

Nice, well done. I’ve been trying to pick up the intents from xdrip using Tasker, but no luck yet. Might have to setup a Nightscout instance perhaps. My son is having T1D, so it would be nice to have some blinking lights when there are alarms during the night 🙂

I think it’s the best way to share values ​​with family members.

Hey,  
If you use Dexcom, I just released an Dexcom CGM app for homey.  
Just out of curiosity, what CGM provider do you use together with nightscout and xdrip?

> CGM Reader for Dexcom CGM devicese.

I am using the Dexcom G6 directly with xDrip+, without the Dexcom app since it is not compatible with my smartphone. Then, xDrip provides the values to Nightscout
