Does anyone know how to send an api request to my nanoleaf floor lamp, I have the authorisation code, which I got from Postman on my pc. There is a http request app on the community apps page but it needs updating for Homey Pro early 2023. Any help much appreciated

No app needed.  
Use the one with the tag symbol in Advanced Flow. The result of the request will be provided with that tag

Hi, Thanks for that, but it didn’t work when applied. This is what works on Home Assistant

rest\_command:  
northern\_lights\_lrtv:

```
url: http://192.168.xx.xx:16021/api/v1/ ****Authorization Code\*\*** /effects

method: PUT

payload: '{"select": "Northern Lights"}'

content_type: 'application/json'

```

Hi, Thanks for your help much appreciated, got it to work, just didn’t use headers and put {“select”: “Northern Lights”} in the Body.
